My first attempt at succulents! After watching YouTube tutorials on repeat, this is what I came up with (a trial run for my son's birthday).

The frosting is browned butter Italian meringue buttercream and didn't take the coloring too well, so next time I will try blooming the colors to see if I can get them brighter and differentiate them more (I attempted 2 shades of green but it's hard to tell) Cake is a spice cake (Preppy Kitchen) with poached pear and apple cider sauce as the filling.
