I worked really hard on this cake and I was bummed when I posted it at a bad time and it didn't get much notice.
I guess that I was so amazed by it, I was hoping more of you would be! He he he, sometimes I need my ego stroked!
Thanks for peeking

I want to play too! My favorites aren't cakes, but cookies. I have three favorites that I just love. They are all sugar cookies with plain old royal icing.
First one is Tom, Tom the pipers son. I just LOVE the pig in the stroller!

The second one is Jack be nimble jack be quick...what can I say, he's cute with all those little freckles.

And the third one is a little baby dressing up....Just love her!

I think this one is kind of cute, it ended up in the garbage . We ate the small 6" I made with the left over batter. After 5 days of nobody cutting it had to say goodbye.

I just posted this cake yesterday but I was so proud of it....when I noticed today that it hadn't gotten very many views I was HOPING lol that maybe I just posted it at the wrong time . YES this one I am fishing for someone to tell me their honest opinion.http://www.cakecentral.com/cake-photo_901023.html

Hi,
I posted this cake late last night and noticed that it never made it to the homepage, and was not included in the "Newest Cake Decorating Photos". This has happenend several times before--I've uploaded a photo and it never gets shown on the homepage, therefore it gets little if any views. When it first happened a few months ago, I thought I missed seeing it. Then it happened several more times, so last night I ended up sending an email to CC to inquire why this is happening, and this was the reply:
CakeCentral.com Support Replied :
The reason this happens is because the recent uploads on the homepage are only updated on a periodic cycle, they do not update each time a new photo is uploaded. So many photos get upload throughout the day that many never make the homepage. It is just a function of the number of people using the site.
So, I guess this is why many of us get so few views on some of our cake photos. Glad I can post them here instead. This cake took a long time because of all the colors and hence, all the cleanup (mixing bowls, spatulas, etc for each color). Thanks for looking!

OK, I have a few that I've done just in the last couple weeks that I'm very proud of but haven't gotten many views and only a couple favorites. I think people just haven't seen them because maybe there were alot of uploads at the time?
Here is a package cake with a bow I did and I thought it turned out really well:

I did this wedding cake last week. I know it's only two layers but I thought it turned out well...
http://cakecentral.com/modules.php?name=gallery&file=displayimage&pid=931853
and this birthday cake, I thought was cool. I didn't finish putting as many flowers on as I would have liked because she came early and wanted to leave in a hurry but I did swags and drop strings and sotas...

Also, I really was proud of my Tink cake:
http://cakecentral.com/modules.php?name=gallery&file=displayimage&pid=535053
and my son's school bus cake
http://cakecentral.com/modules.php?name=gallery&file=displayimage&pid=445553
I have a few to add, these I thought turned out pretty good but got only a couple of comments
http://www.cakecentral.com/modules.php?name=gallery&file=displayimage&pid=950933
You can't really tell but this is a two tone cake, teal on the sides, white on top:

And this one was fun, my first time painting on a cake:

Here's one that I was very proud of and everyone went ga ga over... my first gumpaste heel.

Thanks for looking!!
This is such a great thread! So many gorgeous cakes lost in the shuffle. Here's a recent one of mine, a flip flop cake that I thought was really cute, but only one comment.
http://www.cakecentral.com/cake-photo_956863.html
Keep those links coming, everyone.
This is a butterfly cake I did, it didn't even get a single comment
I didn't think it was that bad.....

Here are some! It seems that all of the photos I have uploaded lately have been lost in the shuffle. Thanks for looking!!!

Hello.... This is my last cake... I made this cake only for practice. I didn't work with fondant before, and this is my first time doing butterflies with fondant.... Thank you...
http://www.cakecentral.com/modules.php?name=gallery&file=displayimage&pid=995913
I only got one comment on these and I thought it turned out pretty good!
http://www.cakecentral.com/modules.php?name=gallery&file=displayimage&pid=983423
So glad this thread has be revived again. I started another thread by this same name today because I thought people were not posting on this one any more. In case any of you want to comment on any of the cakes on mine here is the link:
http://www.cakecentral.com/cake-decorating-ftopict-497053-.html
I only have about 5 cakes so far, but a lady posted a link to a thread she started where she put links to some absolutely amazing cakes.

here is one but it is not mine it's a good friends but it needs to be out there !http://cakecentral.com/modules.php?name=gallery&file=displayimage&pid=933073
I can't believe I read the whole thing!!!! Wow, and looked at all the pictures. While going through all the posts on this forum I was thinking two things:
1. Perfectionism must be a required character trait for all cake decorators.
AND
2. Comments and recognition mean so much to all of us because we are not just cooks creating food. An earlier post said that we pour our heart and soul into our cakes. That is so true but I think there is even more to it. We are creating beautiful works of art on a canvas of cake and they are a reflection of ourselves.
The best way I can think of to describe it is to use the example of your children. No one knows how much heart, soul and sweat (not to mention morning sickness and labor pains)a mother has invested in her child and therefore no one loves a child like a mother. Others can say the child is pretty or sweet but we feel so much more.
So many of us make cakes for loved ones and friends, not only customers and I can tell from the postings here that some of your favorites cakes always seem to be the ones you make for those you love. So don't feel underappeciated if no one comments or think your cakes aren't noticed. All of mine have had at least a few people peek at them and I'm thinking that one of the best things about this site is that you can search for ideas. My daughter wants a cow cake for her birthday so if you've ever made a cake with, about or including cows you can be sure I've looked at it. Your pictures may help someone some day. I know many of your cakes have helped me.
Wow, this kinds of sounds sticky sweet Hope no is weeping uncontrolably now.
I didn't mean it to sound that way. I just want everyone to feel confident and secure in their cake making even if your pictures get missed. Loved the forum though and all the cakes.

Thanks Christi!
Here's one I did this past weekend that I just thought turned out great
http://www.cakecentral.com/modules.php?name=gallery&file=displayimage&pid=990553
And this one might not be big and spectacular but it was special for me and I thought the idea was great!
http://www.cakecentral.com/modules.php?name=gallery&file=displayimage&pid=632343
And finally, this to me was one of my most favorite flawless cakes ever!
http://www.cakecentral.com/modules.php?name=gallery&file=displayimage&pid=957573
Thanks for looking and for all your sweet words!

this is the one I posted for Sarah which didn't pop up right the first time
This is one I was very proud of and it was actually quite large. It was well constructed and easy to transport. It is a Cat based on the kids theme The Littlest Pet Shop. Thanks for taking a peek if you would, and please pm me if you would like more info. Thanks & Happy Decorating!

Hi,
I posted this one last night I think I missed the front page because I only has 12 views and 2 comments.
http://www.cakecentral.com/cake-photo_1009333.html
Thanks for looking!
Deborah
I was pretty proud of this cake, but it hasn't really been looked at, so maybe that is because I think it is better than it really is....Let me know. I know that I need work with modeling - the horse is just ok.
http://www.cakecentral.com/modules.php?name=gallery&file=displayimage&pid=1065083
I also was suprised that this one didn't get many views.
http://www.cakecentral.com/modules.php?name=gallery&file=displayimage&pid=1045153
I just appreciate comments for the advice I get. As you can see I need advice, I am just starting to get into this.
Thanks for looking.
Here's a pic of a 3D sailboat cake I did recently that didn't get noticed much. It was a pretty darn big sailboat with the sails being over one foot tall!

I did this cake last Friday for a cake decorating competition and normally I would not post it since it already has 9 comments but I have two reasons to post it.
1. If I post it will come up on the front page again
2. You guys are awesome commenters and well you can never really have too many comments!
http://www.cakecentral.com/cake-photo_1095003.html
By the way, I thought this thread was dead so I started my own "under noticed cakes" thread so I have several pages of cakes over there that would love to be commented on!
Deborah
I made this cake for my husband's birthday and I still think it's my best yet. I was really proud of it!
