Kind of harsh lighting. For my taste I would have liked more DOF.

I find the chocolate dust to be distracting in this kind of close up shot.

I like the general idea and much of the setup. The lighter chocolate in front seems to be your main subject - try laying it on it's side to distinguish it from the others and giving us a chance to see the design on top. I'd also try moving the dark chocolate on the right of the main subject slightly further back so it's not competing with the focus of your shot as much.

Reminds me of a hajeka photo. Good detail, maybe a bit too bright?

A different and composition would serve this capture a good deal better. The high key background works with the subject(s), but the shallow depth of field detracts from the overall appeal of the image. I feel like the subject is 9 little candies, so there should be 9 little candies in crisp focus. Also, the chopping crop on the right hand side seems more accidental than composed. I'd like to see this one executed better. 3.
