It was during the pandemic that many of us unexpectedly found ourselves stepping into the world of baking. Suddenly, kitchen counters became workstations, social media feeds were filled with banana bread recipes, and people were proudly showing off everything from microwave mug cakes to elaborate multi-layered desserts. For some, baking was a way to pass the time. For others, it became a comforting escape during an uncertain period. And while many of us eventually traded our mixing bowls for busy schedules once life returned to normal, there are plenty of baking enthusiasts who never stopped.
Thankfully for the rest of us, they continue creating desserts that are almost too beautiful to eat. That said, finding all these delicious masterpieces in one place can be a challenge. Luckily, the folks over at the r/Baking community have done the hard work for us. We've gathered some of the most mouthwatering, impressive, and downright irresistible creations shared by bakers from around the world. So grab a snack (trust us, you'll probably get hungry) and scroll down to enjoy this scrumptious collection of baking brilliance.

#85 As Someone With No Baking Experience, I Made A Birthday Cake For My Mom!
This was my very first time baking a cake, and luckily it turned out well :) My mother was very surprised!! :D I wanted to make a little pool on top (the store was out of blue/green jelly ;-;) with tiny fishes inside, but they ended up looking more like stingrays lol. I also make art but first time making an edible one! 😄

#94 Craved The Og Donuts But Not The Palm Oil And Other Junk…
Texture and flavor is excellent. These have a hard, delicious, dark chocolate shell (remember how Entenmann’s used to but now it’s soft?!?). The donut tasted great even without the chocolate.

#99 The Trap Is Set! Final Batch Of April Fools Macarons - "Lemon"
It's done!!
Presenting: "Lemon" Banoffee Pie macarons
Made using French method and Sugar Spun Run's ratios
Components - Banana butter cream outer filing (butter, powdered sugar, banana pudding mix, vanilla, salt, splash milk) and dulce de leche middle
And in case you missed it: Strawberry and Grape
And again, allergens will be well-disclosed ahead of consumption, I'm not trying to end anyone (and this will remain the official party line)
I think these are my favorite out of the bunch - visually, anyway - will do a proper taste test once everyone's had a good time to mature
