You know the drill - comments in this thread please to keep the other thread free for the entries.


Provided there a at least a few entries, I'd be grateful if Prodigy or someone else would initiate the poll at the appropriate time to allow voting to start as I probably won't be back to a computer until a few days after the end date for entries.... If there are less than 5 entires by the date, suggest an automatic extension to the following Monday (14th).


Good luck...:D

The possibilities abound!


1 : the confectioner's art or business

2 : sweet foods (as candy or pastry)

3 : a confectioner's shop


Any sweet tasting candy or pastry I can think of? Now I've got too many possibilities to be able to choose just one or two!


(hehehe - I used all 3 versions of the word 2 there)


This should be lots of fun.


oh, and good first non-entry there.

I was thinking of those bachelor party cakes or perhaps those nipple cupcakes.

Wut?

welllll it's nice, but you should at least have a chocolate bar wrapper or something else to focus on the candy. It took me a few seconds to decide that he was eating something.

He could have licquorice or sour straws as fur there, maybe he is one big candy bar himself :)

Isn't confectionery cakes and pastery and things like that? Or are we just including any sweets? Oh and yes Jack's rocks, with his alien technology version of TS...ahh the version that "exist" I think it is in area 51 with the aliens.

according to Webster's Dictionary:


2 : sweet foods (as candy or pastry)


Cake is a kind of pastry.

Nice entry Georg. I know you spent hours getting the colour right but believe me it was well worth it; that red sauce looks good enough to eat!

Thanks for explaining what a Gobstopper is Breechblock. I never would have guess that it is a jaw breaker.

Great art btw, love those eyeballs and brains. :D

Just don't remember them when I was a kid. Guess if they came out with Willy Wonka and the Chocolate factory, I was well into my adulthood and valued my teeth then. :D
