I used my mom and my sister to take this, my sister is being gluttony like shes sucking all the chocolate off of the piece of candy and getting it all over her face. I used my Mom to be Greed like she finished all of her chocolates and was trying to steal one. In the first picture my sister looked like she had dozed off into chocolate land and she wasnt holding moms hand.
I took Hersheys chocolate syrup and smeared it on my sisters face. The white background was a white sheet my mom sometimes uses to take pictures. I used my moms camera because my camera is pretty cheap and not very good, even though it is a digital camera. At the end of this picture my sister took a bite and ended up not liking the chocolate. So my mom ate it.
My mom helped me with the auto adjustments in Photoshop - levels, contrast and colors.

Nice idea. The background is a little distracting. I would move your backdrop away to get it more out of focus. Also, maybe a different angle would help.
The expressions on the faces are loveable!!! Indeeed a great idea and composition, the colours are a good choice, the red for the mum works well with the reds of the chocolate boxes. I mention 2 issues which should be changed to make this one a top shot. The smaller one is that table cloth is overexposed, but the background's wraps are more ditracting. You did set up an amazing shot, please, take care about ironing the background as well. I was hesitating between 5 and 6, but finally I decided 6.
Well, I would have preferred it if the background was plain white and not white sheet that I can clearly see. The little girl is just brilliant but I think she is a little covered and drowned out by the red boxes!
This is an adorable pose with great colors and it gets the point across; however, the backdrop distracts. Move forward 4 ft or even more and the background will amazingly drop out of focus. 6
