Gracias Cake
This cake was a 'semi-copy' by a cake done by Jaklotz1 (not near as detailed or professional looking as hers!). I made it for a team of construction workers who are remodeling our dining/kitchen. I'm just starting to get into modelling with sugarpaste so all comments/critiques are welcome (don't worry about hurting my feelings wiht constructive criticism - the only things I take personally are compliments!). Cake is buttercream covered and items are fondant.
great job on modelling! frosting is so smooth! not sure if bottom border looks choppy because you edited out background, or if it is the actual piping?
Great over all variation on a tool belt theme ;-D Good "male" colors. I appreciate your diamond work also. But I agree with practiceandpatience thaqt the border seems a little chopping. I have issues making dots appear similiar they seem so easy but in fact are so difficult. But I bet the workers thought it wonderful even dots or no dots. Look forward to seeing your next creation, each piece just gets better!
geez I meant "that" not "thaqt"......gotta work on my typo's
very nicely done and great color selection for a male audience. I agree with the above posters about the border being a bit choppy.. the top looks this way as well. Easier said than done believe me... LOL

your fondant work is getting so much more detailed! And I don't think I need to say it, but you do such fab work on BC designs!!!
CGM: Very Cool job. Overall a good looking cake. Tools look authentic. Side of cake near bottom border could use a little fill in from what I can see. But great cake just the same
To all the Critique Group Members: thanks so much for the comments! This is helping me out so much to improve my confectionary skills! You're the best!
Yeah - unfortunately my husband thought he was doing me a favor by editing out the background and messed up my dots. I'll try to repost a picture without his editing (wish he could have edited it into a work of art! :wink: )
critique group member: I agree with the other members about the border. Other than that...not much to critique. A very great cake.
Critique group member: Very nice! The tools look great,I agree with the other though that the borderlooks choppy.
I love it
This is awesome, great job on the tools they look so real, and your bc looks so smooth two thumbs way UP :D
I really like the colors and for just starting with modelling you did great. I almost thought you covered it in fondant it looks so smooth I think it is a great cake and tell hubby not to take off backgrounds til he becomes a pro ;)
Critique Group Member: Great job! Surely this will get you some business from the crew. Even the handles look real.
