I tried my hand at making buttercream flowers and I really enjoyed it. I also ran out of the blue buttercream to cover the cake so I improvised adding some white and ended up with a sky, giving it a very dreamy look.
It did go splat after taking these pictures! 😬

It was absolutely gorgeous! The colors are beautiful it’s giving bridgerton garden vibes, I’m so sorry that it had such a tragic end 😭
I’m so sorry that happened! The same happened to a cake I made for a friends wedding and I’m still not over it. It was perfect. (Friend was very understanding and fine with the replacement cake I got her. Lucky to be friends with someone like that!)
I’m so sorry.. for the cake and for the fact that I was reminded of Kevin’s chili.
This is literally the prettiest cake I have ever seen!! Before the smash…. lol ❤️ 👏
When I saw the last photo, I immediately hollered, “*NOOOOOOOO!!!!!*”
I’m so sorry that happened. That cake was STUNNING! I bet it would have tasted incredible too.
It is gorgeous. I am so sorry it went splat. You should be really proud of yourself.
Ephemeral beauty!
I thought you made this to intentionally get smashed and thought you were crazy for ruining such a beautiful cake. I’m so sorry! As others have said, it looked beautiful.
Sooo beautiful. Thank God you got some pictures before it went down and showed us the delicate color’s contrast and an overall great looking cake!
🙀
I think your work is absolutely *gorgeous*. No exaggeration, I absolutely love how it turned out. It is so delicate and pretty and just lovely. I’m so sorry it was smashed, but I’m glad we were able to see it!
buttercream flowers might be your calling in life
Beautiful work. Sorry it went *splat*…..
Gorgeous! I like how the flowers have a natural look as opposed to foofy and butterflies are great. This will be a family story forever. What was the occasion for such a work of beauty?
Ow nooooo …! I’m SO sorry!
I thought you meant it was given as a sacrificial cake for a baby to smash on purpose so this is weirdly better 🙀 but I am so sorry for the loss
Oh no! Seeing the smashed cake broke my heart. 💔
Absolutely gorgeous cake (before hand lol).
That’s a beautiful cake.
I would’ve eaten it off of the floor tbh
NOOOOOOO OP!!! Oh my gosh I am soooo so so sorry. Your cake was so beautiful! I would’ve been heartbroken after creating such a masterpiece. Also… I know it was probably delicious af 😭 that frosting is perfection! So sorry bout the bad luck on the gorgeous cake. At least you know you can recreate it! Lol. 💗
woaaaaah
On a rug, no less! You have the cake-dropping sensibility of a horking cat! 😅 Bummed for you!
My jaw literally dropped when I saw the third picture 😭😭
I’m so sorry OP, it’s a terrible feeling!
A true diva looked perfect for the camera then collapsed dramatically.. But jokes aside it’s a gorgeous cake.
Having to clean that shit out of the rug is just salt on the wound. 😭
Oh no! It was truly beautiful. Sorry this happened to you
This is the most gorgeous cake I’ve ever seen, wow!!!!! I’m so sorry for your loss
I’d still eat it off the floor tbh… just scrape off the bottom 🤫🤫🤫
time for floor cake!
This is one of the most perfectly simple yet PERFECT cakes I’ve ever seen. 😭 so my style
I audibly gasped and yelled “oh my god” as your last picture. This is awful!
For what it’s worth, your cake was really pretty! Time to kneel down and eat it Friends-style when they drop the cheesecake in the hallway.
