Sweets From a Craft Fair for MarketFriday

in marketfriday •  6 years ago 

There are still a few photos from a craft market I attended in May this year, and haven't been posted yet, so it's time to show them to you today.

Gingerbread with colored sugar glazing. These come in all shapes and forms matching holiday themes or celebrations like birthday, mother's day etc. These always bring up good memories, I still remember when I was a child and my parents brought us these marvelous artworks from different fairs. We could not understand why we can't eat them :) It's edible, don't worry, but you never know in what condition these were made, especially many years ago. So they bought us normal, usual gingerbread to eat and we kept these as souvenirs.

These hearts in front with white sugar glazing are in Romanian, saying " I Love You". The others with red sugar glazing decorated with white flowers are in Hungarian, and are for mothers, fathers, grandmothers or just saying "With Love".

Handmade biscuits, premium quality from Transylvania. I see vanilla, orange, cherry, rose, lavender and almond. It would have been great to taste each one but these are not exactly cheap products, so let's move on, shall we? :D

All kind of alcoholic beverage for all tastes in these small bottles and syrup in those big bottles (blackcurrant and elder).

Here you can find everything. Jams, compotes, pickles, zacusca, tarragon in vinegar, apple vinegar etc.

This is my entry to #marketfriday initiated by our lovely friend Denise @dswigle.

You should buy one of the big decorated cookies and eat the whole thing. I think it would help you with many of your issues from childhood :) lol Nice photos for market Friday @erikah

You've misunderstood me, I don't have any issues from my childhood. Now I can make my own ginger bread if I want. And thanks!

Nah I understood. Just joking with you :) It was quite good of your parents to buy some gingerbread cookies for immediate consumption :) Sorry if I offended you ...

No offense taken, don't worry, it's just sometimes written text is not understood quite as spoken language.
And yes, they knew it from the start what's going to happen but if you offer something to a kid, an alternative, you might be able to convince him/her not to eat it :)

This is too much... 😍
Last time when I attended one of those fairs, I gained a pound. Following two weeks were hell.

Hahaha, I hear you!! :D Thank God this was a craft fair and were mainly non food products, these were the only food products, but even so ... I must admit, my behavior was exemplary, left empty handed, bought absolutely nothing. I took around 300 photos and that's all :D Can you believe it?
I was lucky, I had to leave town and was on foot, with my backpack on my back. So no room for souvenirs :D
A street festival is taking place in my town tomorro and I won't go :)) You know why from experience :P

Well, you did great. The last street festival I attended left me empty pockets. I bought strictly essential stuff like a wooden mace (my son wanted it but now it just sits in a toy box), some handmade jewelry (probably I will never wear them), gingerbread (kept as souvenirs) and checked in to every single carousel. I took hundreds of photos but that costed me dearly. 😂

I know the feeling :D I would have bought some pottery for sure, but maybe next time.
On the other hand, if you took so many photos, you can do MarketFriday, it's a good challenge! Think about it! :)

I know about Denise's challenge. However, the photos I took are related to the festival parade, people...mainly street photography. They are not fit for this challenge.
Hopefully, starting this Autumn things will change and I will be able to spend more time outside taking photos. My daughter is only a year and a half, and she got my full attention so far. But she's growing and her grandmas are willing to give me some time off. 🙂

That's great news! Looking forward to your marketfriday photos that you're going to take :)

And sevendaysoutside 😉

Yayyy! I'm sooo happy to hear that!!! I bet there are nice windows, doors and gates and other things in Bucovina!!! :)

I waaaaant!! Sugaaaar! SUGAAAAAR!!!

Sorry, that's not for you! You are eating too much sugar already!

Sorry, that's not for
You! You are eating too much
Sugar already!

I'm a bot. I detect haiku.

You! Again!

Whyyyyyyyy???! I need sugaaaaar!!

No dear, you don't need sugar, you just let your brain convince your body that you need it. No sugar for you!! :)

SUUUUUUUUGAAAAAAAAAR!!!!

You can have a glass of fresh water! :P

wow !!!! gingerbread is a work of art! handmade cookies would be interesting to taste. it looks beautiful :)

I agree, that gingerbread is indeed a work of art! And yes, those handmade cookies looked so good.

A vásári szivecske nagy kedvenc nálunk is :)
Sajnos kevés vásárba jutunk el, de idővel ez is változni fog :)

Szerintem ezek mindenhol megtalálhatók, mármint itt és nálatok is, csak külömböző díszítéssel. Sajnos már elég kevés hagyományos terméket lehet kapni, a giccs az mindenhol ott van. Ebben a vásárban szerencse csak két stand volt olyan, ami (szerintem) nem volt odavaló, de máshol bizony csak a kínai giccs van. Azt pl fel se teszem ide.

Persze, itt is minden nagyobb vásárban találni ilyent, csak éppen minket nem találni meg nagyobb vásárokban :D Ritkán mozdulunk ki, a környéken meg még ritkábban van efféle esemény sajnos.

happy weekend dear..so beautiful market there

Thank you @mcsamm, you too!

wow they are looking beautifulhart voor jou.gif

That's the sort of place i would take my wheelbarrow fill it up and go home and party....hehe :)))

Hahaha, wheelbarrow? Aren't you a bit greedy? You're going to get fat very fast 😀

But i will share them with you and get fat together :)

I don't want to get fat, sorry, so I'm going to pass :) I'd rather stay fit and eat just a bit of sweet 😃

Good girl :)

Hmmm 🤔

Your post was a wonderful piece for #MarketFriday. Thank you so much for taking the time and effort of putting it together. You have helped to make the challenge a true success. Thank you so much!
