Where do the diffuser and reflector go when photographing food by a window?

Home Bakery Business class-q-and-abakery-business

When photographing baked goods beside a window, where should the diffuser and white reflector be placed in relation to the food? How do their roles differ, and how can they help control harsh light and the darker side of the product?

Place the diffuser between the window light and the food to soften harsh shadows. Put a white reflector on the opposite side to bounce some light back into the shaded side.

The course suggests muslin or butter paper for window diffusion and a white board for reflection. They do different jobs: the diffuser softens incoming light, while the reflector returns light to the subject.
