The painting is a testament to Meléndez's mastery of light and shadow, as well as his nuanced use of color to create depth and volume. The composition is balanced and harmonious, with each element carefully placed to lead the viewer's eye through the scene. The box of sweets, likely containing candied fruits or pastries, is depicted with an open lid, inviting the viewer to contemplate its contents. The bread twists, with their intricate shapes and golden-brown hues, complement the box's geometric form and the overall stillness of the scene.
