Maybe you even promise to share your cake at dinner or to bring your creation to the next dinner party or potluck. Don't start to worry just stay cool. It is best not to offer your cake to other people if it is your first attempt at baking a cake. The best thing is to try out your new creation on yourself, just to be on the safe side. If you think you would like to bake your first cake for a really special or big occasion on your first attempt then I have one word for you,don't. This just puts you under extreme pressure to create the perfect cake.

This means do not decide to be to elaborate when you make your first cake. You might be setting yourself up for disappointment if you are trying to create something too elaborate for your first attempt. Start small with little decorative touches and experiments.
