Decorative and Artisan Display

Today i put together a decorative plaque, baguettes, ciabatta, and the beer and barley bread. I'm entering a baking competition this weekend and have been practicing for the last little while. On Sunday I'll be doing the decorative plaque, baguettes, ciabatta, beer bread, multi buns, challah, palmiers, croissants, and danish dough for my display. Thoughts and comments are always welcome. If people are at all interested in a tutorial for the plaque just let me know! (I'm from Manitoba, Canada and our province has heritage with the bison and farming hence the wheat and bison on the display) I've redone the plaque already to clean up the seams and braid and this was my first.

Beutiful bread. Will you post a recipe for making a braided wreath? I'd love to have one over my stove.

Thanks,

Patricia

Hello fellow Canadian,

Hope you win.  You put all that effort.  That crown (or plaque) looks like a champion.  Do you want to share a tutorial on how to make it, or is that a big trade secret that can't be shared?
