Alphabet of Sweet Treats

Hi there! I had so much fun making this next illustration (to the point where the hubs told me on multiple occasions that I had to come to bed at 2am).  This is actually my second attempt.   Second time's a charm, I guess, because I really like how it turned out!  ...Kinda rare since, like a lot of artists, I rarely love anything I do.  (We are always the most critical of ourselves, aren't we?)

Now that the illustration is complete, I'm playing with various sizes for the final prints.  The original is 14"x17".  I'm thinking 16"x20" and/or 11"x17".  I'm also playing with the background color as white seems a tad boring to me.  What do you think about a colored background (like the robin egg blue below), and what color would you like to see?

Comment below, and don't forget to follow me on instagram for even more updates! (I'm still working on a Facebook page.)

P.S. Drawing cookies and cakes makes me hungry.  
P.P.S. I don't think there's any real dessert that starts with "x" so I had to get creative.
