That's hard to answer. A lot of it depends upon the cake and the time. If there's time, she's been known to pitch the whole cake and start over. But since she tries to make them as fresh as possible, she's usually on a pretty tight schedule. The few times I've agreed that the cake wasn't one of her better efforts, she's done a kind of mini-meltdown of self-disparagement, then come to the realization that all she can do is give it her best. After her attempts to address the problem(s), I’ve always told her that it looked better. She still says it “looks like crap”, but has delivered it anyway. I should point out here again, that she’s never had a complaint or even any indication that the customer wasn’t very happy with the cake.
