Lady Macbeth: Lady Macbeth is represented as strawberries dipped in chocolate because of her disguised personality in the play. While on the outside she seems like a nice and innocent woman, she is truly much more manipulative and ambitious. The chocolate on the outside represents the sweet façade she seems to put on while others are around. The strawberry is much more tart and shows the true bitterness of her personality, but it isn't entirely sour. She can't actually handle all of the bloodshed committed by her husband, which is why a strawberry was used.



Macbeth: Macbeth is represented as oreo-cookie-brownies. The Oreo is Macbeth's self-doubt because of two sides of every situations, so he can never be too sure of his actions. Additionally, it's at the center of every decision he makes. The brownies are his bravery because it's subtle but still obviously there. Lastly, the ambition is the cookie because its at the top his personality, eventually overpowering the rest of it.

Witches: I thought it would be most appropriate to represent the witches as a potion-like drink. I wanted to use a drink that required multiple ingredients because the witches have multiple sides to them. I used a concoction of green sherbet and sprite because it gives it a bubbly taste which embodies the 'weird sisters' perfectly. In addition, the drink is cold because the witches were never entirely nice to the characters of the play; in fact, they essentially tricked Macbeth.
