Can you please help me make this shoe fabulous? I have put luster dust on it since the picture but it just seems so blah to me........please help! This cake is for a great lady and I really would like her to love it!
Thanks so much!
Tammy
Also wanted to add that I suck at bows!
Love the shoe. Don't worry about it. Once you add it to the final cake it will be beautiful. The dust you added will be fine. We are our worst cridicts.(sp)
I have to agree with Debiashwood. It is a wonderful shoe, you will impress the pants off of everyone with it.
I think you did a great job. There are premade sparkly things you could add, bows etc. But because the shoe is made of sugar I would want to keep the decorations on it of sugar as well. I really don't think it needs anything, but if you want a little sparkle to it you could dust it with Super Pearl Luster dust.
Oh, I liked it before, now I really like it! Not overboard. It looks great.
what Shirley said! I find that you can never have enough glitter on a cake! 
Very nice job on the shoe by the way.
Your shoe looked good before but that shine made all the difference! Beautiful!
Now I knew this would be beautiful, the shoe with the dusts. You did good!!!
Dang girl you have this down pat already. I love them both!!
I really like the updated first shoe and the second shoe. They look far more realistic with the lining in.
Your shoes are adorable...I also like the second one better. I thought you weren't good at bows...I can't tell 
Yup- I think they are both good... I can see how #2 is smoother and the liner is WONDERFUL as far as making it look totally realistic. And I really love the little bow across the front.
Ok I'm going to have to try one of these, as soon as I get a reason to!
What's better than shoes? Shoes made out of sugar!
Nice work!!
Okay, here's the finished project. I know I need to work on my fondant a lot! Not happy at all with that, but it's been awhile not that I'm trying to make excuses or anything 
. Overall, I think it turned out okay. I really hope she likes it and this generates more business for me as this cake is going to another town 20 mins away and it's for the District so fingers crossed.........
I charged $50.00 for this it's two 51/2 square cakes 3" high and the "lid" was carved from a 9x13 about an inch high. Buttercream filling and covered in fondant not to mention the gumpaste/fondant shoe. Just wondering if that's too much to charge or too little?
Thanks everyone!
Tammy
Great job! I just love it! Is the "label" on the box made with edible image? Or did you freehand it?
You did great, and I repeat what I said before, they WILL be impressed1 GREAT job!!
Onto your ?- you said they are 51/2" square? If that's the case, i would charge $50. Any bigger then that I would charge at least $60.
I just posted the photos of my first gumpaste shoe.
I just wanted to say I think your cake looks great! You did a great job on both of the shoes but I favored the second one as well. As far as price, I've never charged for cakes, I just started out, but I think you deserved at the least $50.
