This is an icon for Basket, an upcoming app. The client (Paul) really wanted to use a picnic basket for the app icon, which worked out great for me because I'd been hoping to make a picnic basket icon anyway.
the space behind the milk and the orange needs to be filled with some more food. It now looks like the orange is floating/flying. But, I really dig the details, and the shadows are really well done. Keep rocking. ;)
@Thom I had considered that. Originally I actually had a banana. The problem was that, when scaled down, it become too much visual clutter, so I opted to stick with the orange and milk.
@Bauke Schildt The lid was a compromise I had to make with myself. I wanted the lid opened, but was restricted by the form of the app icon itself. I feel like, when scaled down, the subtle imperfection isn't screamingly obvious unless somebody is being very judgmental about the icon (like designers tend to be).

Oh look, it's a legit app icon, this time!

Very nice!
I have 2 tiny critiques besides agreeing with @Thom about the floating orange:
1) The orange is too round, too perfect and could maybe use a little more dimpling.
2) The lid seems to be crooked (In front it seems to be raised on the left side a bit, but at the back it's horizontal.
