Pump up the color

Posted in Color palette, Details, Food & Drinks | Wednesday, September 6th, 2006 | 7 Comments »

I am sorry guys, I know it gets boring, but I have to bring another photo with rich colors. These are wrappers made with tusa (dried cornhusk leaves) and then colored. Tusa is used most commonly for wrapping tamales, but you can see it can wrap other things.

Can you guess what is inside?
