James & the Giant Peach

So my chocolate and confections class is finally over!  Being the most stressful class I've ever had, I was slightly comatose for the last couple of weeks.  However, I have pictures of my final sugar showpiece.  Our theme was "storybook."  So I chose only the best story ever.

It's hard to see, but there are isomalt strings attaching the birds to the peach, which incidentally looks like an apple.  My pastillage is also wrinkly, but hey.
I also have a much better picture of my chocolate showpiece now.
