I made some more cakes last month, I was planning to sell them when my store opens... but they're now all gone :XD: Some friends got them. Now I have to make more cakes to sell, so you'll be seeing a lot of cakes in the following weeks.

Chocolate & vanilla cakes with a creamy frosting. The one on the left has milk chocolate shavings, the one on the right has almonds.

I love almonds :D but my almond cane was barely ok, I have to work a bit more on my canes.

These little wood plates were part of the prize I received from ~KatGore. She's awesome! Her clay work is stunning and she's also really sweet, please give her some love :heart:

Comments and suggestions are always much appreciated :blowkiss:

:icontheminibookmaker:
Lets get started with vision: this 2 slices look highly realistic, shape and color were executed very well to achieve this result.
More about the colors; the tones are correctly chosen to emmulate vanilla and chocolate, same with the icing.
Technique: there's a lot of detail to make it look spongy and like a real fresh cake might look like at a bakery shop.
Impact: it tricked me at first sight! I thought i was looking at 2 slices of real cake!

One tiny detail i'd critique (in the best way of course); food is not perfect, so in order to make it look more real, it should have small imperfections here and there, and not so so perfect :)
This is my honest appreciation about this piece, hope it helps you!!
What do you think?

I made them the same way you would do chocolate shavings... I took a piece of hardened clay and shaved it with my blade :)
