I was getting this but I had to move the cookies toward the edge of the counter and it worked.
So it's extra insensitive. All the other interactions seem possible from where my Sim put it (once on a half-wall, once on a counter.
Bit unsure what to do with this as I think you shouldn't have to move your goods just to decorate them when you don't get routing failures for other interactions.
I'll do some more testing.

Tested this on my vanilla and same problem occurred.
If I move it back a little on the counter she puts it, it works.
It's certainly not deal or game breaking but I'm going to leave it on the list for now.

I have had this issue since the beginning, and I still have it after Dine Out and the latest patch. I was hoping since counter space seems to be used a bit more efficiently now, small bugs like this one might have been fixed, but unfortunately I still have to manually drag my baked goods somewhere else to have them decorated :[

Thanks for testing.

I have this issue too:-
sims seem to prefer to place food on islands rather than counters - only once they are there they refuse to decorate the food because the path is blocked. This happens if the island has a stool next to it. This means that if you have only 1 island with a stool the sim will always place the food there then refuse to decorate it. This means you endlessly have to move the food to a counter to allow the sim to decorate it. Rather than this it would better if the sims either placed food on counters or after being asked to decorate the food, moved the food to the counter themselves, then decorate.

Confirmed that this issue persists after the October 27th, 2016 update.
By default the Sim will put the baked goods somewhere where they cannot be decorated. You have to manually move the baked goods to the edge of a counter, but unless you know the exact position it needs to be in, it takes a few tries to get it in the right spot to be able to decorate.
It is a very annoying issue. A fix for this and for 'no ideal mood for baking' would be greatly appreciated!

My sims can get the food to make a plate and eat it. The food can be poor quality, but when I go to decorate it they say they can't reach it. I don't have any mods in the game. I have used regular cheats in the past. I try moving the food to various places, countertops, picknic tables, ect. They just say they can't reach it.

Did you move it to the edge of the counter ?

Yep, got the same issue, ragardless of where I move the goods, edge of any type of counter or table, etc. Center of any counter table etc. repairing game game, reinstalling game, yeah none of that stuff works for me. I'll tell ya what will though. The devs need to find and fix the pathing issues with this and put out a patch, plane and simple. No try this, and try thats, no reinstalls or repairs, just have em fix their game, so we can all move on. 🙂
