I’m a pretty good cook. I think I can say that without any hesitation. However, when it comes to baking and decorating cakes , my skills aren’t exactly up to par.
So, I’m always interested to see how others fair in this department . I thought it would be fun to show you some amazing cake designs and some that leave something to be desired. Enjoy!

This Poor Flower Cake Attempt
This is what happens when you think your skills are better than they actually are. A perfectly good coconut/pineapple/rum cake got ruined with palette knife painting and poor buttercream application skills. Oh well, better luck next time.

It goes to show you that those who make beautiful cakes have a talent like no other. Perhaps it’s best for the rest of us to quit while we’re ahead unless this is what you actually strive for, huh?
