I have been thinking a lot about the sketchbook cake. I think it's been one of my favourites. I would love to see an eye palette cake. As the dust spill would be awesome to see. Glittery cleverness.

Imagine making a mirror that is made of cake and you actually see your reflection on it

For the thickness of the chocolate, try filling and then tipping all the excess out on to some parchment paper or something. The chocolate clings to the walls, but drips out the middle. Might not work quite as well for a greased mold, or such a large one, but TRY IT

it’s just amazing what she can do with cake she’s not just a baker shes an artist ily so much!

[ChristmasCheer]

The way that if this was in a kitchen I would probably try to use it 😭

I love your point of view on making mistakes. I can't tell you how many things I haven't done because I'm so afraid of making mistakes & failing. I'm a major perfectionist & knowing I'll make a mistake is an immediate turn off for me & I don't even try. But I love what you said & I'm going to work on it. Thanks for the life tip while amazing us yet again with your artistry 🥰

Hey Nat. I've got experience with resin casting and mold making. I think if you want to try to get your chocolate thinner what you may want to do is try to simulate rotocasting. This would involve taking your mold and then pouring in hot modelling chocolate so that you can rotate your mold around and coat it evenly on the inside with your chocolate as it sets.

I'm just not super familiar with the setup time of your chocolate. It'd need to stay runny long enough that it doesn't slow down and get thick while you're rotating your mold around to coat the inside of it. You can do multiple passes with the rotary casting if you need to though to build up thickness.

IF you do a little research on it, maybe it'll help you out a bit. A new technique to save you time carving and scraping might be good! Food for thought. (Pun intended)

I can one day picture Sideserf making a hyper realistic cake of a city where everything is made out of cake

[Ayenne]

Sideserf: My goal is for you too see the cake that i made today and say “i cant believe its a cake”

Dude that is literally *all* our reactions to the the cakes we see you make

[visbiss]

Imagine if you were roommates with her, you would have to worry that everything is cake 😭
However, that would be fun-

These are amazing. I can't eat cake, no gluten or artificial colours for me (allergies) but I love her imagination and ingenuity! Such talent!

[Nathan_Ellington]

I 100% agree! After I moved I learned just how much I enjoy and am excited by trying things that make me nervous. It's helped me to step out of my comfort zone and learn some amazing things and live some incredible experiences I wouldn't have otherwise.

Ok but I REALLY NEEDED that motivational talk on this Monday morning. Thank you so much!

[Creekersqueaker]

I would love to see a yarn cake! Thou could use spun sugar as the little wisps in the fiber

When Natalie was talking about mistakes, there was one thing in my mind. TEST SCORES!!!! I think people forget that in school, tests are for your teachers to understand where you're at. If you got a lower test score than you expected/wanted, its a chance for you to learn and grow from that test. Tests are not there to kill your determination if you get a lower score than you wanted, they are there to spur you on so next time you can both aim higher and learn from your mistakes and improve. Low test scores are also humbling, and I for one know that when they happen, it sure is a wake up call.
Keep going and work as hard as you can, you will make it.

maybe you should tap out the chocolate after u pour it into the mould to make a thinner shell. if you’re too scared that it would be too thin, you should let it set partially and tap out the remaining chocolate before it sets completely hard. but amazing cake tho!

[rosythole]

I've actually been thinking a lot about this and it never gets out of my mind
I would really love to see you making a Hotdogs hyperrealistic cake with ketchup and mustard 😋

I've been loving your approach to videos recently of telling stories instead of explaining how you made the cake. Because these are not REALLY tutorial videos, they are just amazing cool videos, and you have such interesting stories and you tell them in a really fun way 🧡
