The Historic House community raved about a workshop on making fake food
held in Texas last year led by Jane Anne Hornberger of Winterthur
Museum. I don't know why they haven't spoken up, but did I mention they
RAVED about this workshop? They claimed that all food made was very
realistic (looked delicious and historically correct) and collections
friendly. They also claimed that museums with small staffs and small
budgets could afford this.
