Subject: Reproduction fruit/sweetmeats

Can anyone help? I'm looking for sources for high-quality, reproduction fruits and/or sweetmeats (candied flowers, etc.) for an installation that replicates a grand, early nineteenth-century English table setting. I've seen some pretty convincing ceramic fruit, but don't know the source.
 
Thanks,
