Pictures of dessert can really capture my attention! In general, it really is a nice-looking piece. The attention to the shading against a tricky texture is really appreciated. I can tell that effort was put into this. The first thing I noticed was the lack of anything but sauce at the top of the cake. Something baked on the top would complement the cake other than a solid color of caramel.
The bread texture isnβt too bad but itβs missing a lot of life. No effect of the caramel soaking into the bread, no cracks in various places, and, as mentioned, I appreciate the shading on the other piece of bread thatβs a tad hidden, the texture doesnβt look right to me, perhaps a tad saturated. The sauce also looks more like chocolate than anything. There should be more effort to add a translucent effect. (Apologizes if it IS supposed to be chocolate).
The nuts also resemble closer to cashews than anything. I can see them being walnuts if they were REALLY broken up, but they appear way too smooth to be walnuts. Really the only big thing to me that sticks out is the shading. Against a tan color with more spread out black parts, it just doesnβt feel right to me. Youβve done shading against surfaces well in your other work, but I think it fell short on black against such a light color.
Donβt get me wrong, itβs pretty! However, I am not feeling as much life in the piece as I feel like there could be. Youβve shown details and life in your other works especially and I hope to see livelier confectionery in your gallery at the expense of none being saved for me! π

This is just DIVINE!
The texture, the caramel...
One thing I really like about your art is that when I look at it, I FEEL the cake (ok that sounds weird). I mean, I can smell it in the air as if it were right in front of me! Feel its heat since it probably just got out of the oven, all nice and crispy ! You get the idea. xD
Delicious!

When you boil the sauce make sure you do it for a while to cook all of the alcohol out! The cake will cook it all out so it's safe for everyone!

Thank you. I decided to make a tutorial about that next, but I think I will wait until the weekend, to be able to capitalize on some of that free time.

Not really a fan or walnuts or rum (far too young for that), but this looks delectable!

I think it's supposed to be rum essence, the aromatic thing you add for the taste... but now that you mention it, I think it could be the alcoholic beverage too...

OMG Lua, this looks so realistic! I'm always fascinated by artists who can make liquidy stuff look real. I can almost see the glaze oozing down. And the cake itself... looks like I could reach out and touch it. Simply beautiful, Lua!Β

Aww, thank you! I don't think anyone ever put so much soul into a compliment for my drawings...Β Β The thing with liquids is that I don't always draw them convincingly. This time, apparently I managed it.
