A thread that has been very popular lately is that people feel as though they are not receiving adequate comments or views on their cakes. I know how everyone really values opinions and praise from their fellow decorators. So I thought I would start this thread for anyone that feels they could use a boost today!

Please post a link to one or two of your cakes that you are really proud of that DID NOT receive it's fair amount of views or comments in your opinion. this will get some of your fanastic under noticed cakes out there for additional comments, views and saves.

But please, no pity parties here! Feel good about your hard work! No negative self comments allowed thumbs_up.gif

This is my first time making a cupcake cake. I made this with all my kids running around like crazy and my infant climbing all over me...so needless to say, getting the frosting smooth was the least of my worries. I'm pretty proud of it despite some obvious flaws. First time with FBCT and first time using the cake extender. It's devils' food with mini-choco chips inside. I have to admit, they are the BEST cupcakes I've ever tasted. Thanks to all the help and advice CC!

Great thread Idea.

Here is a link to a strawberry topiary I made. I know it's not cake but I am very proud of this creation for my first goddaughter's christening.

Great link! I know that everyone is busy and it is hard to get comments in but it is so nice especially from us newbies who need to know what we could do better or get advice from those who are in the know...

My first stacked cake, took me 15 hours! I've always wondered what people thought... it has over 500 views, and only 1 comment...

I worked my hiney off to make just the right cake for my Dad as he is going through a divorce and needed a day to just celebrate.
Lots of looks but only 1 comment.
I am not extra special decorator but I am very proud of this one!

And here is one I had almost nothing to go on but tried to make it modern yet classy! Some looks but very few comments.

This was my first time making/using fondant (MMF) I am very proud of this cake. I think that it turned out really good given I had no clue what I was doing.

I have a couple - its a mystery to me why some of the cakes I've made which I thought were just okay got way more comments than the ones I was really proud of and took the most time!

I really loved doing the orchids on this (I didn't do the cake). There were 36, up and down the front and back. Only 7 comments (2 were my responses) but over 250 views.

This was actually my first ordered cake. I'd been planning it since about September for a June party. I was very please with the outcome. I had a lot of views but only a few comments and some of those were me responding to questions.

http://www.cakecentral.com/modules.php?name=gallery&file=displayimage&pid=657833

This one was ordered by the same person but for a different party. I had a difficult time covering a FULL sheet cake with fondant but was proud of how it turned out.

This is one of my favorite cakes. It is the only stacked cake I have done so far. I am still very new at this, but this is one I was really proud of.

Thanks for looking.

I made this cake for my twin sister and put so much time and planning into it to make it very "her". This is also the only cake that reduced me to tears because I was getting so frustrated with it. I know it is an usual cake, so I am not totally suprised that more people didn't like it as much as I do. She is into dark/gothic stuff. The fondant monkey with devil horns and tail was my first fondant figure. I also wanted to put a monkey with a halo on it to represent me since she is the self proclaimed evil twin and I am the good twin, but I decided to make this cake all about her.

My first one is a "fist of rock" cake. Saw Duff's and others here for inspiration. My dad had a reunion concert with his band from when he was young on Father's Day so I made this for everyone.

The 2nd is my son's birthday cake. Even though it isn't all edible, I love this cake. It was a lot of fun to do and I was really happy with how my black fondant turned out.

I've looked through all the cakes here and they are fantastic! There are just WAY too many great looking cakes on here with not enough people to comment on them all. icon_smile.gif

Great thread, it is easy for photos to get lost, I check the new ones regularly but don't recall any of the ones here. I recently became victim to the gremlin which switches your comments off, so now they are back on I'm posting these ones:

http://www.cakecentral.com/modules.php?name=gallery&file=displayimage&pid=752263

http://www.cakecentral.com/modules.php?name=gallery&file=displayimage&pid=557943

I was proud of both, but the second one was my first attempt at a shoe and a bag, and having a bag fetish myself I was pretty chuffed with it!
