Wishing I Had Better Cake Photos

Today I’m sitting here wishing that I had better cake photos of the cakes I made when I first started baking.

When I started my home bakery business, I didn’t think about photography. I thought about baking. The recipes and the packaging were most important to me. Honestly, I was so busy trying to fill orders that taking pictures was the last thing on my mind.

Now, all I have to document these cakes are a series of refrigerator pics, box shots, and photos that really don’t do the cake justice. I am going to post them to document my journey, but if you learn anything from this post, let it be this:

Make time for great cake photos of your great work!

Please share!
