it looks beautiful but doesn’t look like i’d like it but that’s probably cause it isn’t chocolate

do you think the colours might be too dramatic or are they fine?
Maybe use a darker green. It reminds me of mould 😂

huh?? it's not green its blue lol

dusty blue and slate grey at the bottom with rose gold drip and decor
I'm personally not a fan of the colours or how the buttercream looks. But that's just my personal preference - I prefer bright, bold colours like pinks and reds etc. I'm sure the recipient of the cake will love it :smile:

Ohhh. Personally I don’t think the colours go well together but the design is nice
Oh my gosh I just love it . Its so me and my style . If I would to change it it would just be maybe adding a little blue to the edges of the grey flower petals in the flower at the top . So it reflects the blue in the middle of the cake :smile: either than that 10/10.. truly stunning . Can't believe you made that ! You should be really proud of your self ! :smile:

I think the drip is really good! That technique can be hard to get so well done for that
The buttercream is a little bit bumpy/bubbley so that could be improved
But I agree with the others, those colours just aren't great on a cake. Perhaps a white or pale pink buttercream with the gold drip would have been better

Nice, that is a great art work by yourself! the colour sheme is a matter of taste, I personally prefer powerful looking colours. :yes:
I like it, impressive.
The design is nice, as in the way you've set it out, but the colours give it quite a gaudy look imo.
Tonnes better than I could do either way.
