OOOOH! Those are reallllly impressive! emotion_bigheart

I'm always curious as to how people get the cake to look... 'cakey' on the inside.
Any tips?

I'm not exactly sure how to explain it, but you have to use a needle and poke and tease the clay until it is textured enough.

Oh my gosh! At first, I thought they were real. I was going to say send me some of those to eat.

Anyways, though they look delicious, you did a wonderful job! Keep it up! heart

Yes, how small are they? The detail is absolutely gorgeous. I'd only suggest making the "slice" slightly smaller maybe? But honestly, the way they are is probably perfect.
Thank you everyone! ♥

They are a little less than 1 inch across.
I'll try making smaller slices next time.

They look delicious! <3
I think the plates could use some gloss to make it look like glass/ceramic. Other than that it's PERFECT

That is tiny indeed! I applaud your skill and patience 3nodding

I'm not exactly sure how to explain it, but you have to use a needle and poke and tease the clay until it is textured enough.

You can use a hard bristle toothbrush and get the same result with just a slightly more even pattern, works well with cookies as well. But these are amazing cakes, great job!

I use a brush with cookies and I've tried it with the cakes when I first started, but I don't think it makes as good or realistic of a texture for cakes as the technique I currently use does.
