Alys Katherine, of all people, asks:
>Why not make the appropriate heraldic devices out of chocolate?
The obvious response is "why not make them out of something used for
such purposes in period?"
One might try sugar paste--on which subject Alys Katherine is
something of an authority--or Marzipan, or ... . What is the point
of going to all that trouble in order to do something strikingly out
of period, thus making it harder for people at the event to pretend
they are really in the Middle Ages, when the same amount of
trouble--probably less if you use Marzipan--could produce something
that was just as impressive and period as well?
