I love the composition and the colors, but this doesn't come across as that appetizing to me for some reason. Perhaps the tones are a little too yellow on the food?
Firstly, yum. Secondly, yum. Thirdly, I know it's done with your camera phone, but there seems to be a little oof area at the top (back?) of the bowl. For a 'top down' shot I feel this should be in focus too.
I'd be curious to see what it looked like from more of a side view. I prefer that, but that's my personal opinion. This looks so good! An excellent 52-Week topic, but that means I'm going to be drooling once a week.
Very well done. I commented on your "first try" but add here that your top-down view of the dessert adds
visual appeal that is not often utilized. (and it should be, if this is the result)
