Here's that cake I mentioned before! :la:

I like how the checkerboard effect came out! However, I wish I made the cake more translucent. Looks like I need more translucent clay >.> The texturing could use more work as well. I ran into some problems, which I think can be summed up into this question:

Which do you do first, frost or texture?

The cake slice is a charm, there's an eyepin in the back. Comments and critiques more than welcome!

Materials
Premo! Sculpey polymer clay, Translucent Liquid Sculpey, eyepin

Sorry for the late response! I use circle cutters and alternate colors :3 There are a lot of tutorials on YouTube!

I typically texture it, bake it for just a little bit like ...five or ten minutes, then frost it and bake again.

That's a much better way than what I used! :XD: Baking in between frosting and texturing is super smart (which is why I never thought of it, haha). Thanks for the tip!
