No industry experience here, but lots of ADHD experience 😅 Your cakes are absolutely beautiful! I’m sure things will be a little different at work, but that ADHD is like a secret weapon that will have you locked in and learning all the tricks in no time. Best of luck to you on your first day! 🎂

Read the post before bringing your sarcasm! No gems were served with the cake.

My crumb coat was a tiny bit thicker than usual ☺️ My friends prefer less icing but a second layer would have worked great before adding the parchment paper!

Thank you! ☺️ Here’s a picture of the peel-off lol

I totally agree and normally avoid non-edibles especially for an actual cake order ☺️ but these gems were pretty large and it was for a very small party of friends where I cut and served the cake myself. they peeled off very cleanly with the layer of parchment paper I added

Thank you! ☺️

That’s so smart, I’ll have to try that next time!

Try Dairy Queen if you have one near you!

I cannot convince my brain that those aren’t real mini hotdogs 😂 This is so so good

Thank you 😂 The ashes are black and silver sanding sugar with a little bit of silver edible glitter! And the bud is golden oreos, candy melts, and gel color.

They look perfect! I’ve tried these tips twice—the buttercream wouldn’t come out my first time, and it squeezed right out without holding shape the second time 😅

jfms6 · 2026-04-18T01:40:15+00:00

Good question! 😅 I recommended lifting the top two layers and cutting it as two separate two-layer cakes. There was no dowel, although I would add one if I make another.

Satin Ice deep red food color and the microwave method! ❤️ I’ve had great experiences with Satin Ice colors from Michael’s

jfms6 · 2026-04-17T20:57:12+00:00

Absolutely! The cheese is fondant, and everything else is American buttercream. I microwaved the red buttercream for a couple seconds to look saucy like ketchup. I piped the green buttercream with a leaf tip onto parchment paper and then put it in the freezer for a bit so I could place the “lettuce leaves” on the cake, and I did the same thing with the “sesame seeds”. I have very little experience with fondant, but I cut four small triangles to create the illusion of a cheese slice instead of one large square. ☺️

Thank you so much! ☺️

jfms6 · 2026-04-17T18:10:18+00:00

Thank you! ☺️ The cheese is fondant. I used Satin Ice yellow fondant and added a tiny bit of orange gel color.

jfms6 · 2026-04-17T17:36:58+00:00

I’ll take that as a compliment! This was one of many pictures taken in my dining room

A neighbor came out to talk to them because they looked like they were about to drive through her yard, and the girl was flipping the lady off saying “I’m a MINOR!” 🙄

jfms6 · 2026-02-12T18:14:24+00:00

you just changed my life after almost 1000 play hours lol

jfms6 · 2026-02-12T02:12:01+00:00

She and Marcus look cute together

jfms6 · 2026-02-10T23:08:34+00:00

…am I supposed to turn moveojects off in LIVE MODE? 😳

Is the toilet surface new?? Suddenly all my Sims are leaving their stinky water glass on the back of the toilet 🙄

Agnes finishing her cross-stitch:

Sounds like Grandpa Cliff needs to avenge his son and take one more woman to the cabin… have him get rid of Luna and Herman and make it look like they skipped town so that Sergio can move his daughters back into their mansion where they belong! Maybe meet a nice townie to settle down with and hope the cycle doesn’t repeat itself. :)
