Not stepping back from their cake. We tend to be Type A personalities who can get bogged down in the details. By stepping back from our creations, we can get a different perspective on what the final product looks like. While we are working, there are times where the cake is better served if it gets popped into the refrigerator. Continuing to work on it at room temperature will only make things worse. After just 20 minutes, not only will our perspective change, but the consistency of the cake and buttercream will be much easier to work with.
