What should I do to make my donut look less weird?

I’m a blender beginner who just finished the donut, and then I made a coffee so I tried to put these into one scene. But the donut feels weird (less realistic than the coffee?)

I wonder what should I do to adjust my donut, is the model not realistic in the first place, or it’s about the texture and lighting? What’s my next step?

A big thanks in advance;)

Hello May7,

The sprinkles on the chocolate are way to big :

The model is ok, the materials could be improved and the lighting too.
If it’s your fist scene made with blender it’s quite great !

My advice is to not expect ultra-perfect renders and models from the start.
It’s better to move on to another tutorial and after a few ones it will be way easier to revisit this scene and fix the missing bits.
It’s not just one button to push, there a a lot of tiny tweaks that can help to get a better result, you’re close but it lack the 20% that will make it perfect !
But once again, it’s already quite an achievement for a start !
