I found a cake like this by Chef Ryan on Facebook, and wondered why I didn't think of this myself. After all, I made plenty of cakes like this before I discovered the bakery. Just ask my kids.
This is such a happy painting. I love it! Your bright colors against the black areas make this painting pop. Most of the cakes I made for my kids when they were small had a degree of crookedness to them. After driving myself crazy for a few years, I finally realized that there is a reason why bakeries exist. Although I must admit that the barbie doll cake I made was pretty cool.
I am the author of Master Disaster, 5 Ways to Rescue Desperate Watercolors. Based on a course that I have developed over many years, the bones of this book give you a plan to finish your paintings--and even your bombs. The meat of my book and course, though, is to help you structure your life to encourage and accommodate painting. Painters have to paint. This is how to do it.

Hi Sue, the staggering cakes make a lively painting! Maybe you can stagger cups or one with a tower of cup-cakes (I have one in mind too)
This is such a fabulous painting! I love the addition of black to all the bright colors. Delicious!
I Love this! such a unique and fun idea. Love the color and playfulness.
