So my last post went crazy, thank you for all the kind words guys. A lot of you requested to see more cake!

So here it is! I work in a pretty small bakery, kind of the up and coming underdog in my city. When I told my boss/ the owner I was getting a divorce she didn't blink an eye to get me whatever raise I needed to stay with the company.

Of course I picked a blurry photo of this cake. Just... imagine a pair of folded Levi's.

A few folks criticized that if they could pay me more at the drop of a hat, why wasn't I already making those numbers? Small business. Only decorator, have been getting decent, steady raises as the business grows. I'm very involved in the business. We had discussed what the bakery could pay for and how to raise the profits.

In return I have job security, and o get to do something I'm very very passionate about.

I'm very pleased with my situation, even with the divorce.

I mean, who else gets to make dentures out of cake.

Folded clothes are actually really fun to do.

This is just a sample of the kind of cakes I crank out.

They're definitely not your grocery store cakes.

Shit, another blurry one.

Just imagine hous came with the bag. I know what your thinking, gross fondant.
I put mine on very very thinly, I do all the sculpting with the cake and icing underneath.

I love doing fun stylized cakes

This one was to replicate a customer's Sunday hat. It was a challenge, but she loved it.

Daryl Murray be an upstanding guy. This can cake was about 16" tall. I did a lot of math to make sure it kept the right proportions to look like a 24 oz.

M'Lady.

This was a replica request of some rapper's birthday cake. I had to hand sculpt the medusa's face on the Versace bling. I did two, but the second was covered by the lid.

This cow is honestly one of my favorite things I've made.

Even if she was a little cake thief.

This is an oldie. Probably 2016? Purses make good cakes.

Opulent Minnie

Even got on the mirror glaze craze. Did this one at home. Off the clock for a friend's mother who'd never had a birthday cake before.

And this was...hooo... like 2015... like my second or third sculpted cake at my current bakery. The customer who picked it up had an asthma attack in the shop because she was excited.

Front page edit: Wow! Thanks! I admittedly get a little nervous sharing cake photos. Thanks for the encouragement! I'll definitely showcase more in the future!

WOW awesome work!

I like them but I still believe fondant is a different thing and not really frosting. That and I like sugary tastes.

Not be an asshole but do they taste good as well?

7 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

Taste is subjective, but I do like the cake my bakery puts out. Very moist. Strong, distinctive flavors and we use swiss meringue

Buttercream on most cakes, which is lighter and less sweet than traditional buttercream. Some of these were even boozy cakes!

Not extremely detailed, but it did have a mons pubis to tuck the panties around?

Yep, it was modeled after someone who lost most of her body in an explosion. Now only a bit of back and ass.

We don't do well with that. It would go a long way tbh for getting orders, but there's just so little time

Have you considered hiring out for that? There are companies that are super affordable.

7 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

Hire someone. Not full time at your bakery but an agency who specializes in that. Find a teen with a passion for it and pay them to make

7 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

And manage a page. Or a college student. Or an agency.
