Man, I fucking HATE cakes that are decorated like that. It's so fucking cliche in the first place, and what happens to the poor motherfucker who gets a slice off the side with no fruit? Fuck them, right? And have you tried cutting through that fruit salad on the left? Half of the shit falls off the top anyway.

fucking disgusting. sucks to be the number 7 guy who gets the worst selection of fruit that has also been touched by six other people first.

It's a meme design for gay retards, which makes me believe that not only are you actually gay, you're also a retard.

That cross-section looks hella dry, too.

Look up actual French patry chefs and not gay pinterest shit. You'll find that they labor furiously to ensure that every slice, every bite is consistent, beautiful and delicious.

Do you enjoy having sex with men and decorating cakes?

[Anonymous No.16792050]

You take the decoration off before cutting there and put it on the part of the place cleared by previously cut slices, same as if there are plastic figurines decorating it.

Good effort but the decorative berries look like they were put un regardless of what the cake looked like. For this cake I would have used blackberries, blueberries, mulberries, boysenberries and a few scatter raspberries and red currant strings that would pop.

Yeah it's harder because I don't usually follow recipes exactly when I'm cooking. If the recipe only calls for salt and pepper to season, I'll throw in garlic or oregano or something if I think it'll be good. You can't do that with baking because then it might change whatever chemical compounds are in play to create a cake or cookies or whatever. Are you one of those people that follows every recipe to a T, never customizing food to your tastes?

If you understand the simple chemistry behind it you should be able to experiment all you want without fucking everything up. Also, from your reasoning on why actually cooking is "easy", I can tell you've never cooked anything harder than scrambled eggs. Try making a dish where not everything on it can be cooked at the same temperature or using the same technique. Cooking more complex dishes requires knowing more than just throwing a couple herbs/spices in a pan. Baking you're still just mixing shit together and throwing it in an oven for X time at T degrees.

[Anonymous No.16792370]

>>16792184
No, organizing your thoughts and legibility are called "paragraphing". Leaving whitespace after every single sentence is "reddit spacing". There is a huge difference that a lot of retards on this site don't see. Paragraphing involves separating your thoughts into sections, but keeping those thoughts that aren't completely different from the last one in the same paragraph. Everything you wrote could have been compressed into 1 or 2 paragraphs, but you chose to plebbit space it.

Me, on the other hand. This is what it looks like to organize your thoughts properly using paragraphing. I'm keeping the body of my paragraphs at an acceptable length so it's easy on the eyes and also being sure that I'm not condensing too much information into a single one. Adding white-space is a good thing, but do it in a way that makes sense, instead of just throwing it in there because you're used to the formatting of another social media website. Doing that just makes you look like a faggot.

Yeah I've cooked plenty that's harder than scrambled eggs ya cunt. It's still easier for me than baking. I've never done a beef wellington but I've made stuff like whole fish on the grill, beef bourgignon, chicken cordon Bleu/Kiev, even helped my gf make ice cream once. I just fuck up baking every time I try for one reason or another. It doesn't concern me much though, Ive got a bread maker so that helps when I want bread. For everything else I just buy it from my local bakery.

I don't understand how people say cooking using a recipe is "hard". Of course, it's a skill, and there is a world of difference between an amateur and a professional, but making a tasty meal using a recipe is literally braindead.

They are projecting their own inadequacy onto you. They are saying "I couldn't do that, so I am going to cut you down. Do you think you are better than me because you can do a thing?" Most people are trash anon.
As for the cake, I like it. Your frosting was very smooth and even. Though I must say I agree with the anon about the decoration being a bit silly. If I do a cake like that I make sure to have extra fruit at the side. That way you can compose it how you would like without sacrificing taste.

Don't worry what others think, you should be proud of your cake that you made in order to make your friends happy.
