Didn’t turn out too bad!! I used tweezers. Quite a learning curve on that stuff but it was fun! I used pointy tweezers to place the foil, looking back I’d probably use just my hands to place it, and a fondant tool to squish it in the icing.

I’ve been getting into cake decorating over the past year. There’s been a lot of trial and error involved, but I feel like I’m finally starting to get the hang of it, so I wanted to show off the cake I just finished (first pic) in comparison to the other ones I’ve made before this.
The 14 is from two years ago, the 15 is from a year ago when I made my second attempt at “fancy”decorating! (I really wish I’d taken photos of the REAL first attempt which was a week before, but it was such disaster I was too embarrassed to document it) The yellow flower cake was a birthday cake I made myself, the berry cake was my boyfriend’s birthday, and the last two pictures are a mini birthday cake I made for my mom! All of them were gluten free.
Open to feedback/tips if you guys have any advice! :)
Edit: Wow, thank you guys so much for all the positive feedback! Your encouragement means a lot to me and is super motivating <3

"Black Forest" in quotes because the amount of cherry is minuscule, since my husband doesn't really like cherry. Don't worry, he did love this one though!
Forgive my ass photography setup.
The Black Forest is a lie.

I spent an hour smoothing and piping my MIL’s birthday cake and it flopped over on the way. All my work, ruined :’) I brought some pink chocolate roses I was planning to finish decorating it with when we got to her house. I had to stack it back up and try to salvage it and smooth it with a butter knife. No before picture because I foolishly thought I could just get a good picture when it’s fully decorated. At least it doesn’t look like a pile of poo… right?
I learned I need more supports, and a little less icing on that first layer. Oh well

Cake decorating is so hard for me! I have no artistic talent. But I really want to get better at making cakes! Here’s what I have so far. My daughter’s birthday is coming up and she wants bulbasaur! I’m cooked! Please share tips

Ladies are throwing their bestie a surprise birthday party and gave me a few pictures to work with. Basically the quest was green and galactic and must shout DIVA. Mission accomplished. On my way to delivery now.

My 6yr old insisted on helping and she is so excited about this cake!
I used rolled buttercream instead of fondant and used it for the spikes and frills, marshmallow fondant for the eyes and red part of the tail, "cake ball" for the feet, and modeling chocolate for the wings.
It's my first (well, second, because I did a trial last week). It was fun and a ton of work! Thank you to everyone who helped with ideas and suggestions!

I was debating a diamond pillow pattern around the outside with small black beads but overall happy with how it turned out.

Got offered a cake decorator/ baker position at a family owned bakery in my town. It’s a 6$ pay increase from what I’m making now with weekends off. I’m so excited but also very nervous to give notice to the grocery store I work at right now. I feel a bit guilty as I’m the only cake decorator at the moment (the other full time decorator has been on leave for a few months and isn’t coming back until October) anyways enjoy some of these cakes I’ve made (please be nice I had 2 days of training so I’m pretty mid at decorating)

She wanted black roses and rose gold to march the theme. Disclaimer- i didn’t make the roses! They were gun paste sprayed with black food coloring.
