Making HYPERREALISTIC Fruit CAKES

Natalie Sideserf of Sideserf Cake Studio creates two hyperrealistic cakes of pears and apples and places them among real pears and apples to see if you can guess which one is the cake. Did she pull it off?

You fooled me with the apple, and the only reason I got the pear was because I remembered what the stem looked like. You did an amazing job! :)

[lydias]

Me watching the end: "wow, that apple in the middle looks so real!"

Natalie: *cuts the apple on the left*

[allysmootwinters]

Alright so I was pretty confident that after watching you make them I could pick the right one. I was like “the middle Apple is slightly darker but she got it pretty dang close” AND THEN YOU CUT THE LEFT ONE.

The reflection on the apple was all that gave it away. The cake reflection was unlike the other two.
Pear: The freckles on real pears are smaller, almost pin-like.
ABSOLUTELY AMAZING ART ❤

The pear was pretty easy to pick out. You put a very distinctive "scar" on the cake that set it apart from the other two pears, but if I hadn't known already ahead of time that it was a cake and didn't remember that particular 'scar' there's no way I could have known the difference. The apple though... that one I couldn't pick out, so well done. ;p

[MrSkilopsaros]

honestly looking at the apples at the end I thought to myself “Nah, the pear was fantastic, and this is good, but it's easy to tell which apple is the cake. Good job tho.” And then you went and cut a different apple than what I thought was “obviously cake”. I was so sure it was the middle one. Absolutely amazing job

The pear would've actually been harder to spot if I didn't pay attention to that brown spot.
The apple was relatively easy to spot as it had much more water drops and they were much denser compared to the other two

So fun! Retired art teacher here and totally relate to your love of hyper realism in painting. What’s funny is that in college, I painted a couple of pears on canvas and named it “A Pair of Pears.” 😂

Can you imagine seeing a bowl of fruit on the table, and you decide "I'm gonna eat an apple", but then you bite into it and realize its actually a cake? This would actually be a fun way to prank someone

[rajijeya]

The pear 🍐 cake was AMAZING! I could not tell the difference but in the Apple 🍎 cake, I could tell the difference by seeing the stem. I love the cakes you make they are sooo unique!

[matthewstrenske]

The only way to differentiate the cake from the real fruits is the reflective texture, the cake has an obvious difference in this appearance, the pear was relatively easy to pick out compared to the apple, the apple took me a second between the second and the first one. You can see slight depressions and unnatural indentions in the reflective texture that ultimately makes the cake noticeable with a close enough look, otherwise, this cake is completely undiscernible from their real-life counterparts.

You are an inspiration to all artists in the world Keep going on

[tryga]

I actually thought the cake was the middle apple. You really nailed it.

[farnazdarjani]

The cakes were really hyper realistic. If you haven't shown in your video the detailed "bruising" and "water drops" that you have done I would not be able to tell the difference. 😱😍😍😍👌👍

[HappilyAnonymousGirl]

I actually guessed right a out the Apple.

What I noticed was that the “water” droplets were different than the other two. They were more uniform in their spacing and also higher in number.

But I will say, I had to really look at every single detail for a minute before I could see a difference, and even then I wasn’t completely sure lol.

You did an amazing job on both tho, and I can’t even imagine the time it takes to learn how to do this.

[Piscesmermaid]

Totally amazing. I got the pear cake right but was totally puzzled by the apples! Awesome x

[Isa-pjud]

For the pear, it's the stem that gives it away. For the apple, I really couldn't tell which one was the cake 😄

[galaxytori]

As an artist that gives the details a good look, I discovered which one was the pear because the freckles were a larger size, and the apple was spotted because the stem was lighter than what it should’ve been. But, god, you are talented

[idkwhy]

"no cakes and ice cream! Only fruits!"
"I got you, doctor"

[gideonking]

I could tell the pear apart by the back of it and that's what gave it away. For the apple I thought it was the middle one!
