first cake – how’d i do?


I made various from-scratch desserts in college but largely am inexperienced.

My daughter recently got into the mini-cake decorating videos on YouTube and I decided to buy a decoration set and a pantry full of ingredients.

For my first cake, I made:

Cookie Monster Chocolate Chip Cookie Cake
– cookie dough recipe + heavy cream & milk to make it more cakey
– cream cheese frosting with a dash of blueberry extract
– fondant eyes with chocolate chips pushed in for the pupils

I didnt have a grass tip so I just used the smallest tip I had to pipe on individual "fur locks" in layers.

Would love to know where/how to improve and what is already strong.

    This is great! And bless your heart for piping all those strings on! For next time if you still haven’t gotten a grass tip, I suggest a ziplock (not a piping bag) to poke numerous holes in for this effect

    Ugly as sin. How dare you bake something like that? It should be destroyed. I tell you what, send it to me and I’ll destroy and dispose of it for you 😋🤤😂
