Can you take a look at my photos and look at the bear cake and give me your honest opinion, I'm not too happy with it and am meant to be giving it to a paying customer, do you think maybe I shouldn't charge, my mum says no but I'm not convinced.

I don't know what a 'Me to You' bear is, but it looks very cute!

Can you make more grey and fill in the areas? Maybe you could make a different border around the "plaque" the bear is holding just to make it stand out more. Can you add some drop flowers to the plaque! Other than that I think he's cute!!!

it's very cute, i also don't have a clue what a me to u bear is (but i bet the internet will tell me icon_biggrin.gif )


the only problem i see with your cake is that maybe you should have iced it lightly first before you started the stars (i bet there's a correct name for that, but i don't know what it is) or i could just be seeing things, pictures don't always tell it--

as far as charging or not--i think u should charge, there's nothing wrong with that cake, it's nice

I hadn't heard of "Me to You Bears" either, but here is a link: http://www.metoyou.com/

They're cute and I think the cake is cute as well.

oh he's really cute! You should definitely charge for it. The only thing I would have done would have been to give it a crumb coat so you wouldnt see the cake underneath. It looks really cute though!

It's a lovely cake - definitely looks like a 'me to you' bear to me, and I should know, my daughter has one! You should definitely charge for the cake thumbs_up.gif . I agree with the suggestion about putting a border on the plaque though.
