They didn’t turn out anything like I wanted, but here are the cakes I made for my niece’s first birthday. 🙃


I got sidelined by health problems and ran out of time to decorate the way I wanted to, which is still bumming me out, but I think I did the best I could with the time I had. And the best I could with cream-cheese frosting and no ability to freeze anything to get it smooth lmao

Aside from the sugar lace (and the candle), all decorations are fondant/gumpaste.

Bonus pic of also-unfinished sugar cookies / absolute chaos. 🙃🙃

    I’m my own worst critic when it comes to cakes. So, now I do cupcakes and scoop/drop cookies only. I think it all looks good, and in a few years, your niece will appreciate the effort you put into this for her 1st.

    My neice would dream that I made anything this lovely!

    Adorable! Both the cakes and the cookies. I love sunflowers so I guess there’s a bias

    This is unbelievable. So much love went into these I can’t imagine you’re disappointed. Really incredible.

    they are great! you are too hard on yourself

  16. smalllcokewithfries

    We can be our greatest critics. You are very talented, and these cakes are incredible! If they tasted even half as good as they look, it was a success. Don’t be so hard on yourself.

  27. Haillnohails

    These are both so cute! I think we’re always most critical of our own work.

  28. NegotiationSea7008

    They’re wonderful I can’t see how they could be improved on.

    I think they look bad personally, but that’s only because I’m 100% lying and don’t mean that at all. Great job.
