Would "Strawberry Jam" be allowed?

Nice and tasty Jason. I see a lot of stuff like that being sold as Serape Lace as well, another trade name for the stuff that's been coming out of a few square miles in Chihuahua for a long time. Thanks Lee! I was pondering doing a "test" intarsia with the white/orange/yellow mix to make a Candy Corn...but this kind of just jumped out at me instead...a lot less work! LOL Yeah...the whole "trade names" drives me crazy. Most times I refer to any of the stuff from there as "Mexican Lace"... Would "Strawberry Jam" be allowed? Heck yeah Dave! Could also pass for Strawberry Shortcake!

How about a grape ape gumdrop, not to be confused by a gorilla of a different flavor? The rough and preform, Flat back, domed top and no extra hands... And a video, but not mine...

Khara, the second picture should be used. The first picture is just my wife thinking outside of the box when she saw my entry the first time and thought a wrapper would be a good way to present my cab. Khara, Ruth should get the extra credit.

victor1941 Well I like your wife’s creativity! Now that I look again I’m thinking your rose quartz probably tastes like pink lemonade.

Khara, my idea was pink champagne or pink lemonade but my idea was vetoed to keep it simple.

Jasoninsd, your chocolate idea is good, however, my wife does not like chocolate so it's a bag of Starlite peppermints.
