Piece of cake

 It's been a while since I've shown any cakes so today I'll give you all the ones I've done recently. Here they are in no particular order.



This one wanted all pink even the leaves. I tried to get varied shades but they all ended up looking just about the same.

This one was seriously plain but that's all they wanted on it.

This one was the last one I did. The order that was taken said that the writing was supposed to read "Happy 70th with a heart". I wish people taking the orders would understand that if that's how they write it then that's how I'm going to put it on a cake. They need to be either more specific or draw me a picture of how the writing should be. Thankfully this person had called in to check on what she had asked for on the cake and the person she talked to clarified this for me.

The colors on that first one really pop. And your talent is apparent on all of them. ❤️

I wish I wrote half as good with a pen as you do on the cakes...you really are gifted.

They’re beautifully done Ann. I would be very happy to get any of these. Always enjoy seeing your cakes.

ditto on Rose comment, you are gifted with your writing skills and your drawing of letters skills with pen. I saw some awesome YouTube on how to make different letters in procreate. that would drive me nuts and I would not have done the cake the way you did by the instructions written for you.. they need to describe or draw for sure

These are all so very good and I know they tasted awesome. I can only imagine how hard it is to try to do exactly what the person has in their Mind... good job Ann

Fantastic cake decorating talent there Ann.
Trying to figure out what the person has in their mind sure can be a challenge. To me you did great.
If I had more patience I think cake decorating would be fun to do.

I think my favorite is the all pink one. I can see that you did achieve more than one shade of pink, too. This would be do cute for a little girl.

Gosh, it would be so easy to get a cake wrong based on those instructions! I like the pink one.

The last one if my favorite.
Yes, people should be CLEAR on what the want on the cake.
