I remember food displays for A&S competitions being discussed either here or
on the SCA-Arts lists. You might check this file in the CELEBRATIONS AND
EVENTS section of my Florilegium:
AS-food-msg       (23K)  9/24/98    Displaying food items at A&S events.

Although not specific to food, these files also might be of interest:
5x8-Doc-art       (19K)  2/17/99    "5x8 Documentation Is All It Takes: How to
             
                                       Write Documentation for A&S Entries" by 
                                       Gunnora Hallakarva.
AS-cont-docu-msg  (20K)  6/10/98    Documentation suggestions for A&S contests.
