    OMG Lynz! You are a pure artist! I would have been having heart palpitations trying to do this. One cake I attempted to cover NEATLY looked not dissimilar to the aged effect you were going for! Truly, you are a master cake decorator and I’m thrilled I discovered your channel recently. Thank you once again 👏🏻😊

    Love the cake. I never would have thought to use the dried out fondant. It really make it look like actual stone! I love your videos!
  • @theloveleebaker
    This was excellent! I have seen geode cakes before but none that have actually made the fondant look like stone. Genius!! Beautiful work.
  • I love this cake. Thank you for using purple 💜 lol. Such great and different techniques come together to make a gorgeous looking cake. There are so many things I want to compliment you on but to numerous to mention. I simply LOVE THIS CAKE. Thank you for sharing the sugar crystals. I always thought you had to make them from rock candy. I definitely have to get some. Thank you for sharing and keep on caking 💜
  • Stunning cake. Thank you Lynz. I used your grass technique on my cake last week and posted it on your Facebook page. It’s so effective. Mo xx
  • @tiffanyng3799
    Hi! Will the rock candy on the cake be ok in the fridge? Will they become sticky or bleed?
  • @mochapokapaw
    I love this! It is so beautiful. I'm not sure if you take suggestions on cake ideas but if you do, I think it would be fun to see some sort of princess cake. I really enjoyed your Victorian style cake tutorial and think it would be super cool if you did one to look like Princess Belle's dress from Beauty and the Beast with lots of ruffles and maybe some gems or something like that. Thank you for another great cake tutorial! <3
