Cake I baked for my daughter’s birthday. It’s not perfect but acceptable for a novice, I think.

    It’s adorable! Your daughter is very lucky to have a mom who cares so much about making her birthday extra special.

    Yeah, don’t shit on your own work! This looks great. Say it with your chest ‘I made a damn fine cake’.

    This cake looks fantastic and the fact you took the time to make it shows the love. Sure it isn’t as hard as some cakes but you had to make all the layers with different coloring and then cool and wait to frost all those little bastards and then most likely wait again before doing the the final coating.

    Again cake looks fantastic and you have it standing tall and proud, also your frosting layers look lovely as well. Chances are you would be able to make other cakes just as beautiful.

    It’s amazing and you know it. Can we stop negging ourselves in the sub. If I see one more post with a flawless cake but a tagline of “not great but I did my best” I’m gonna puke.

    ABSOLUTELY FRICKING BEAUTIFUL!!!!!

    I do not say this lightly, but if someone made me a cake like this for my birthday, I would cry. Even as a child, I made my own. Right now, tearing up a little about it.

    This is a 6 tier cake with different colors. It’s amazing. Happy birthday little one!!

    This is beautiful. I still remember the rainbow cakes my mom used to make for me covered completely in m&ms. She will remember this fondly (unless she is 1 year old)

    Forget the self deprecating and please start telling us the flavor or flavors of the cakes. Nobody ever tells us the flavors. So with that being said, please tell us what flavor or flavors it is!!

    Better than anything I could do. Well done.

  22. lovemycats1

    I think you did an amazing job! It’s beautiful!

  23. OBXdreaming

    What a GREAT Mom U R. I bet it tastes as good as it looks.

  24. Good_Habit3774

    It’s gorgeous you should be proud of yourself 😉

  25. barefootguy83

    It’s pretty and as long as it tastes good it doesn’t need to be perfect! In fact, knowing it was handmade would mean so much more to me than a perfect store cake.

  26. HappyHourAndTacos

    OP, this is exquisite! What a wicked job!!

  27. Optimoprimo

    You nailed some of the hardest parts, which is getting the layers even and having the appropriate portions of frosting to cake. This is incredible for a novice!

  28. ZoominAlong

    WHAT are you talking about? that is an AMAZING looking cake and if someone had given me that for my birthday I’d cry from joy. It looks DELICIOUS.

  29. comicsnerd

    It is a great cake, but what is more important is that you made the cake special for her.

    I am an old guy, but I can still remember my dad making a special cake for each of us kids on our birthday. He made a great apple pie each Sunday, bit for our birthdays he all went out. Even in our teens and when we went to college and university he came with a cake. Would not let mom buy one. That is how you make memories.

    Looks pretty damn good to me!!

  31. effitalll

    Are you kidding? This is a gorgeous cake and as a kid that would have locked in some wonderful memories.

  32. ClearBarber142

    Omg! I bet she loved that! Nice job!

  33. overcompliKate

    Dude, if I made that cake, I would not shut up about it ever! You did an amazing job!
