Your Fav. Most Awesome Sheet Cakes.
Decorating By notjustcake Updated 30 Nov 2012 , 12:12am by carmijok
There are quite a few sheet cakes on here done by other members that I just love and have quite a few of them in my favs.
I would have to say my most favorite are the ones I have done especially the ones I get to put flowers on. This is the cake that made me really love doing sheet cakes.

Well, if I can also be so bold....I have several in my gallery that I have done and I'm awefully proud of.....
I am so glad to find people that like their cakes. I have a terrible time even looking at my own. All mine seem to have these huge faults that make me want to throw them out. I know we are our own worst critics but mine are not good and I feel like I have done the best I can. All that you all have posted are perfect!
HI all! First, what a great post! How creative everyone is! Second, thanks to whomever posted my Singing Sunflowers sheet cake! Third, I love this site and all the info and ideas everyone has!
I have another one I like of mine (which I've come to find out I am my own worst critic! Anyone ELSE like that????? hahaha) - it's my Eifle Tower cake. It's rare when I REALLY like a cake, and I really liked that one!
Have a great day!!!!
My hat's off to all you talented cake decorators that can make a sheet cake beautiful! I dread doing sheet cakes. It's the opposite for me - I see the blank canvas and get "cake decorator's block"!
I couldn't agree with you more!!! This thread is great. It gives me great inspiration to quit complaining about these and start getting creative!!
Thanks to all talented decorators!! Everyone of these cakse has been beautiful!

wgoat5--I viewed your cakes and you are GOOD!. Love the baby shower cake and your 4th of July cake is fabulous!
Everybody's cakes have 'faults'--we just photograph the other side!! LOL!
AmyCakes - I couldn't resist posting your cake! I love it!
I get decorator's block as well when I look at a sheet cake... I had started a post to show my awe of those of you that can create something out of a sheet cake, because, frankly, I can't - look at my photos - lol, only one is a sheet cake, the 50th birthday... but that just shows why I don't post my sheet cakes!!!
I hope people continue to post their faves, I'd love to add a bunch more to my collection.
Here are a couple of mine

A sheet cake really is a blank canvas, doesn't mean you can't make something special out of it, a suitcase is basically a sheetcake, add a muffin on top, and you get a 3D mountain (treasure island)
Some more great sheet cakes that I just found:

I am so glad everyone loved this thread, I got the idea from another thread, I started cause I was not a fan of sheetscakes and wanted to see what else was out there that I had not seen, I had a few saved in my fav's but now I have so many more!!! After seeing all these cakes from all these wonderful CC members I cannot wait to make my first cool sheet cake.

cakemommy,
I was speaking about myself being bold--I hesistate to ever brag or pat myself on the back for my own accomplishments when I should. Alot of others have posted thier own cakes and I was applauding all of you. I'm sorry if you took my wording of my post personally. I would NEVER insult any of the CC members--you have all been a great help and sorce of encouragement to me. My post followed yours, but I was not "targeting" anyone--just adding my own post about myself. Again, I'm sorry that my wording caused any grief for anyone. I will certainly be more carefull if I ever post again in the future.
I think its because we don't hear their voices on here, I don't think cakemommy was offended by your statement at all...I think she was saying everybody needs to be proud of their cakes as do you MCook...you do awesome work!!
MCook~Actually I did take that personally and I also knew that others posted their cakes as well so that's why I posted mine. I too thought sheet cakes were very boring but have since been proven wrong be many people on here who have inspired me to give them a try.
I apologize for being rude. I don't typically respond like that but I just wanted to make it known that it IS okay to be proud of your own accomplishments.
Thank you for clearing up your intentions and I am very sorry for taking it the wrong way.

That's about it for me. I think the others that y'all have posted are great! I'm gonna go get me some favorites saved!
Well, since we can "toot our own horn".... I usually don't, but I've seen you all post pics on here that I haven't even seen on the site yet! There are some great ones!! Here are a few of mine - I find I am my worst critic - of course there's no one else like that, is there??? ** I find sheet cakes can be fun - like a blank canvas for me to draw on. While some turn out better than others, I find if I don't like it for some reason, I don't take a picture - then it's like I never did it! hahahahahahaha! As long as the customer loves them, that's all I care about!

LOL! Thank you
If nothing else, I can make a mean Chocolate Cake!
Wow, AmyCakes2, you are such an artist. I can't even trace well, much less free hand. Great cakes.
Well, I don't know what the full intentions were for beginning this thread, but I must say that it really helps us "small town folk" who never get anything but sheetcake orders.
People around here only know sheetcakes. I have tried to talk people out of them, and rarely, I am successful. I wish I had the opportunity to do more elaborate cakes.
Thanks for the ideas, they will definitely help to keep things fresh!
