Pansies And African Violets Cake

I made this cake for my first cake decorating competition (I got 2nd place in the 13-17 age group) and was very pleased with the results. Although you can't see it very well in the picture I did a basketweave on the side of the cake and wove african violets into it. Thanks for looking!

Looks great and yummy. The flowers look very well made. I only took one weekend course when I was 13, and I'm still decorating 32 years later. Hope you keep it up.

critique group member: Your pansys are perfect. You have a knack for flowers. Your chocolate cakes seriously make my mouth water. They look so rich and delicious.

It's too cute! Those little flowers really add to the cake, I love how you use such bright colors against the chocolate. Your basketweave turned out perfect, excellent job all around and sweet job on your win!!!

Critiue group submember: Your pansey and violets are well done! I prefere that chocolate cake stays mostly chocolate though, but that is me and not you. I am glad to see the cake plate instead of tinfoil :D . Again prefer writing to be on plaque, banner or cake board. But either way on cake or not, you need to work on the handwriting so it looks like work of art like your flowers. I will PM samples to you.
