Personal Challenge: Food Styling Stack

This was a personal challenge to myself, inspired by the photo below I found on Pinterest by photographer Maciek Miloch. I thought it was interesting how all the croissants, presumably weighing equal amounts, were balanced upon each other. I wondered what it would be like if the pastries were a variety of sizes instead, and went for a more symmetrical approach.

I also added the challenge of maintaining 100% edibility, even when photographed — I did end up using a wood dowel through the middle, but everything was adhered to the dowel and each other with real royal icing.
