Photographing food requires attention to the light source. The best location for food photos is by a window or anywhere else with natural lighting. Use a micro lens to get close to your subject for added volume. Choosing a low f-number reduces depth of field, softening background details. Note that shots taken against a white plate or table cloth tend to be underexposed; if necessary, increase exposure compensation.
