Develop the raw with dpp. In photoshop: levels, curves, crop, selective colors, clean the background with the burn tool, clone out some white point(sugar?) on the rose. Thank you to my beautiful wife for the idea :)

Critique Club Review:

Color Saturation and Hue: Colors are vivid, the red is on the edge of over saturation. Hues are natural.

Brightness and Contrast: Contrast may be a little high. The some of the whites in the sugar area have lost detail and are featureless.

Focus and depth of field: Focus is nice and sharp, but maybe a little shallow. Things start to soften by the time you get to the back of the box, and the sugar at the left of the box is very soft.

The compostion here is interesting. I would have liked it a bit better with less saturation, and not so much contrast. A little different lighting angle, not so much top down, may have helped give the sugar some definition also.

That was a tough meter, wasn't it? The sugar seems blown out, but I like the setup.
