Ok you have got to be kidding me! Is this the FIRST time you've done cake decorating or a Wedding Cake? Either Way, this cake is So Awesome! I love it. I would love to have more detail about the cake you know like the sides, top, etc... it's so AWESOME! I know your friend had to be beside herself! It's Magnificant! MY OPINION is I LOVE IT!

That is a really beautiful cake. It's unique yet very classy. You should defintely be very proud of your work.

Welcome to cakecentral! Always glad to have new members. Your cake is beautiful. Can you give us some details on the design?

Oh my gosh! I'm sorry that you have such problems typing and that you mistakenly said that was your FIRST cake! WOW! That looks so great and beautiful! What should you do different?? How about some more beautiful ideas?! What is that made of?? It's just beautiful!

That came out really nice
Its really scary to make your first Wedding cake I made mine this week and it was not really a wedding cake you would think to see at a wedding but its what they asked for and it fits the culture down here in New Mexico. So check it out and let me know opion .

I hope to see more of your cakes sbc

Wow! That is a really nice cake. Please share with us how you did it.

Can't believe it is your first cake. What talent!

Outstanding! This cake is beautiful!! Is that fondant to look like ruffled fans? Oh, please share details of this cake? Thanks in advance.

That looks awsome! I would not change anything. I know we are our own worst critics...(atleast I am), But from where we are sitting, it all looks great. Good luck on your future orders and I can't wait to see more pictures. Keli

Did you say First time??? I would have never guessed that by looking at this cake. I think it turned out great!! I would also love for you to share you details.... Keep up the good work and give yourself a pat on the back...make that 2 pats...lol

Hey sbc.....does your unsername stand for Such Beautiful Cakes? ...if not, it should!!

You must be joking!!! First cake-I don't believe it!! You are an artist, girl!!!! Fantastic, beautiful design. I am with everyone else--details, details, details!!!!

Tanya

I don't know how you could have made this cake any better...it's WONDERFUL! I too want details on how you did it!

I would not change a thing. It looks beautiful! What did you use on the sides? It looks like those cookie sticks. You did an excellent job!

I saw this cake on (thecakestore ) . They show this cake with flowers and fruit but I love the way you decorated it with the fans and flowers. After seeing your decorated cake I think I may just try to make a smaller version for my sons anniversary. Great job on the cake.

Wow! Your cake is fantastic.. I would love to know all the details in decorating it, what flavors etc.. Hope you can share some info with us.. It is an amazing cake.. especially for your first cake.. I'm in awe.

You would never know that that was a first cake attempt. It looks flawless!! Well done!!

So, tell us, how did you temper your chocolate? Do you use the big marble slabs? Have you the space for them in your work site or kitchen?

I'm so jealous, we are working with chocolate show pieces and we had to make those skinny rolls when we did our chocolate boxes! as a matter of fact I should upload that!..

Good luck on your cakes, if this is your first cake, you are head and shoulders above the crowd already!

Maybe you can post the tutorial on your technique!

I'm going to see if I can upload MY first attempt at a wedding cake..lol

as soon as I UPLOAD IT>...hahaha
* Diva is an airhead!

Wpw. your cake is beautiful. I can't think of anything new to say about it that everyone hasn't already said except WOW! If this is your first cake I would have to say you are an artist and a natural at decorating cakes. The only we are all asking are details. Please.

Ditto what everyone else said. This cake is unbelievable! Just awesome!
Hoping you'll share instructions too!

Great job! Very unique design!

Oh my God, this is BEAUTIFUL!! This can't be your first cake because it looks so professional. Great job!!

I think what SBC was saying is not that this was his/her first cake... but rather, this was the first time that SBC had done this particular design. At least that's the way I interpreted the post.

And yes, it is an absolutely incredible cake!


Di

Di, I think you must be right! Somehow it just doesn't seem possible to make a cake this beautiful and this perfect as your very first cake.

Maybe sbc will come back to us and clarify. If it is truly a first cake, Collette Peters and other top decorators better watch out! Janice

Hi again Di! I just now noticed that you are in Garland. Just wanted to say hello, and glad to meet you!

My first decorated cake is actually in my gallery (at least my first in over 20 years), it is the round quilt patterned one that I made for practice before making the birthday cake for my mother's 90th last November. Sure not pro quality! Janice

MMMMMMM...Maybe the mystery will be solved one day.

I know that this cake takes a lot of work if you make all the components yourself.

It is very similar to something I've seen in the magazines....magazines like Chocolatier and such.

Very nicely done...I've been doing cakes for 27 years and I tend to shy away from doing replicas of magazine cakes as I don't have the eqiupment and/or space.

SBC ...has skills! ( as we say in Miami!)

Janice, I love the round quilt cake... no one would ever guess that was your first in 20 years! That's so sad what happened to your mother's cake... I would've cried.

Thanks for the 'howdy'... can't believe we're so close. Plus plus plus... our birthdays are exactly one month apart -- mine's July 21st!

Helloooooo? SBC????????
