I had another idea for this challenge. But it didn't quite work out. Oh well. Someone suggesting frosting and over the last few days, the idea evolved into this.

I really like the idea & think it's got a great shot at the theme, but the colors struck me as off... may just not be my flavors of ice cream

the white balance seems a little off here which has caused the colours to look rather un-natural. I would have guessed this would have been shot using lighting for a tungsten lamp?

Very nice. A darker background might make the image more dynamic.

I am not a big fan of food shots so I may not be the best judge of these. I find the color flat.

It is very difficult to photograph food items such as this and make them look good. The professionals do not use ice cream. They use a substitute like Crisco. It stands up over time and under the lights and looks better when photographed...
