[Sca-cooks] My Feast Report in Pictures

[Johnna Holloway]

I just did a flat cast sugar plate of the Midrealm Arms for a display at 
the Midrealm Crown.
305 degrees will work. Cool the pan down before doing the pour.
Even without all the humidity up here, it dried hard and wasn't that sticky.
It peeled off from the foil alright. Humidity and timing will affect the 
outcome of it.

What did the sugar plate cups weigh? They look heavy duty. I know you were
commenting on how few were being made from each batch and now I see why.
Pictures are great. I didn't even get any digital shots of my display on 
Saturday.
The husband and heir ran off to boffers and I didn't see them for most 
of the day.
