Retro Bizzaro Styling with Aimee Wenske
Fabulous friend/photographer Aimee Wenske and I were lucky enough to take some pictures for Retro Bizzaro. Armed with a bag of treats and a box of fabric, I styled and set up the shots while Aimee shot pictures. We ironed a lot and took turns carefully taking bites into treats.
Retro Bizzaro is Mark and Amanda Joyner's way of bringing snack cakes and candy bars made of local ingredients to the people of Austin, Texas. Look for them at Hope Farmers Market and random other markets. For a fun window into their lives follow them on Twitter @RetroBizzaro.
The bella luna is like a s'more cookie sandwich. I liked the chocolate half better than the other. I got to take the first bite of this one.
Logs are a retro version of the Hostess Twinkie with vanilla cake filled with grapefruit cream. The log was my favorite Retro Bizzaro treat. I sometimes find myself craving them. I wish they delivered to my work.
Others treats are quite bizzaro like this bacon marshmallow "tweet" (which is like a marshmallow Peep).
I let Aimee take bites of the meaty-bacon treats.
Amanda and Megan from Stetted just started a new food blog called Two Forked Mamas where they document their adventures in mommy-hood and farm fresh foods.
Megan told me Retro Bizzaro discontinued the grapefruit filling and replaced it with strawberry lemonade. As long as it still sounds summery and citrusy, I'll take it.
