1. Choosing An Image as Original One
Lets get start by choosing an image we will be applying this effect to. I perfered the image below . Open up this image from the main menu. In the Layer palette you have a layer which calls 'Canvas' and being locked by default.
2. Duplicating twice
We are going to copy this original image and paste it on a new layer in the Layer palette, start by pressing Ctrl-A to select the entire cavas then press Ctrl-C to copy that in a new layer which automatically be created when we release Ctrl-V. Doing the process above again, so you should get 3 layers in the Layer palette.
3.Applying Highpass Effects
Make sure that you are now stay in the layer2 ,open the Highpass dialog box by chooseing Effects > Esoterica > Highpass from the main menu, set Aperture to Gaussian and Amount to 1.83. Once this is done, set the blend mode of layer2 to Colorize.Click back to the layer1 , open the Highpass dialog box by chooseing Effects > Esoterica > Highpass from the main menu, set Aperture to Circular and Amount to 1.83.This time don't need make settings of the blend mode of layer1.
4.Creating a Gradient Layer
Create a new layer by clicking on the small button as the shot below.Grab your Bucket Tool with Gradient Filling mode ,and open Gradients palette by choosing Window > Library Palettes > Show Gradients (Ctrl+8), I'd like making a chocolate effect, so I'm going to use RGB(175,128,82) as my foreground color and RGB(165,83,35) as my backgroud color. Create a gradient near the middle left of document. Set the blending mode to Shadow Map and create an effect like the one shown below on layer 3. By choosing File > Save As to create a .jpg File which we will import to Illustrator for mapping to 3D chocolate.
5. Using Illustrator's 3D tools
