The bottom one on a blue tray kinda works. Definitely has a “swimming against the current” vibe

Yeah, if she was going for...

...then I'd say she just about nailed it.

Honestly, I like her beaver cake better. The top one looks like they care more about what it's like to look at it, and less about what it's like to eat it. The simpler one gets the point accross that it is shaped like a beaver while still being easy to eat.

I couldn't agree more. Especially when it comes to "cooking" shows that have the main goal of creating something that looks nice ... I don't want to know what chocolate tastes like after it got spray-painted and tossed in "edible" glitter and whatnot just to make it visually pleasing as an art piece, and then stood on display un-refrigerated for twelve hours straight.

The second cake looks a lot more appetizing to me, and it is fairly clear that it is meant to be a beaver, whereas the first cake could just as easily be a hamster or marmot, so it gets the point across as well.

All in all, I'd prefer the second cake.

Oh my. The first one looks super cute although the eyes are a bit... worrying. And the second one is... minimalistic. Is the tail just a straight up slab of chocolate?

Thank you for sharing - what are the chances you'll encounter 2 beaver cakes!

If they're made out of cake they both look good to me!
