Hi - I just don't know what I think about this one. Do I need to add something? Honest opinions greatly appreciated!

Thanks,

I think your cake is adorable. Maybe though if you added little red flowers that would bring the cake out a bit more but other than that I cant think of a thing...its great!!! thumbs_up.gif

Very cute, well done. But.... only because you asked for brutality.. icon_smile.gif I am not a fan of so much green. Add more flowers? But then again, it may detract from the teletubbie.

Just thinking out loud really.... I really do think it is adorable. icon_smile.gif

i'm not one for overdoing details on a cake, and i'm not necessarily saying you should add anything else, (it looks nice right now) but my thought went to the little bunny that always hops around the grass. maybe a small fondant bunny rabbit placed at the bottom near the border, maybe even in the back...just a nice little surprise that wont be expected.

either way, bunny or not, the cake looks well right now.

The execution is really good, but way too much green/yellow. Way too much. I, too would add something else for some more color contrast. Red or pink flowers, or some side design with another color.

I think the cake looks great. My eye went straight to the teletubby and I think that is what you would want. It's charming!

I second the red flowers, it would just "complete" it you know?

otherwise- that cake is amazing, and flawless! icon_biggrin.gifthumbs_up.gif

That was the first thing that came to my mind also. That little bunny that hops around.

Thank you all so much for the feedback! I will definitely add some red flowers, and maybe a bunny too.

You have all been a huge help!

I think your cake looks great but it does need more color. I think if you do a tubby in red would do the trick and make the cake pop.

It is so darling!!! Everything looks so precise! Maybe add flowers in that deep orange color -- same as the ball.

Thanks everyone for all the suggestions and comments! Here's what the finished cake looked like... this pic was taken in a rush on the way out the door. : )

I just added some little red flowers. I tried to do a bunny, but my mmf wouldn't cooperate with me - too soft - and he looked a little flat! So I left that off. I think the birthday boy really liked it though!
