Hi,

I was thinking this morning about the new All-Time Popular Cake Photos on the home page. I really like this and I enjoy being exposed to cakes I may not have seen or reminded of some of my favorites.

BUT, it occured to me that there are lots of awesome cake photos on CC that, for whatever reason, don't have enough Saves to show up under All-Time Popular cakes.

I thought it might be fun to start a thread where we can show other CC members cakes from our favorites that are less well known.

For continuity's sake, let's stick to this format:

1) Give links for up to three cakes from your favorites that you think deserve a look (preferably with 20 saves or less)
2) For each one mention the name of the decorator and what you like about the cake/why you have it saved.

Here are mine:

1) This is by PinkPanther

http://cakecentral.com/modules.php?name=gallery&file=displayimage&pid=181793

I love the color scheme on this cake and the combo of stripes and roses is so pretty! Check out the cool bottom border. r

2) This is by rudycutie

http://cakecentral.com/modules.php?name=gallery&file=displayimage&pid=164973

This is such a lovely shade of green. The ivory piping makes it look like embroidered fabric. I love the tiny bead border at the bottom, too.

3) This is by meghabyte

http://cakecentral.com/modules.php?name=gallery&file=displayimage&pid=67969

Check out these crisp buttercream edges, the beautiful buttercream flowers, and the great banner!

Come on...nobody?

This could be a really fun thread!

Here's My Three:

Wysmommy: Love the colours! So striking

simple, elegant, and that swan!

The easiest way is just to copy and paste. It should automatically turn into a link when your post comes up.

If you don't know how to copy and paste, someone else will have to help out. I have a Mac and the commands are Apple C and Apple V, but I don't know how to do it on a PC.

Great idea, I'll play!!

By: Berl - I really think the cake is elegant!

Thank you chocolateandpeanutbutter. He was a challenge. If you make him, make the tombstone thicker than mine so it will be easier for him to rest on it.

I'll join in. Hard to choose

The quintessential basket of flowers, I sooooo want to do one like this, I think it's fantastic!

This is a much better way to expose the fruits of everyones labor rather than nipping at each other heels! Anywho I like to following:
