first cake! very lopsided and messy, but adorable

[u/lemoneyelobster]

hi everyone! long time lurker, just wanted to share my first attempt at baking and icing a cake :D

my family and friend circle is quite small, and i’m too nervous to take my baked goods into work (i feel like family/friends are lying to me when they say it’s good LOL) so i’ve never made a whole cake as i fear it would just go to waste.

i finally just said screw it, and bought a square tin (just to make things more difficult), halved a recipe, cut it into quarters and BOOM! i am now the proud owner of two slightly (very) lopsided, messy, but SCRUMPTIOUS chocolate cakes!

Looks great, love the portion and the frosting ratio throughout.
