I am trying to re-create a button similar to what is given in the picture below. However I am unable to add the faint shadow behind it.

This is what I'm trying to achieve:

This is what my button looks like:

This is my code:

                Container(
                  height: 45,
                  decoration: BoxDecoration(
                    gradient: LinearGradient(
                      colors: [
                        Color(0xFFFF8C3B),
                        Color(0xFFFF6365),
                      ],
                      begin: Alignment.centerLeft,
                      end: Alignment.centerRight,
                    ),
                    borderRadius: const BorderRadius.all(
                      Radius.circular(25.0),
                    ),
                  ),
                  child: Center(
                    child: GestureDetector(
                      onTap: () {},
                      child: Text(
                        'Create Account',
                        textAlign: TextAlign.left,
                        style: TextStyle(
                          fontFamily: "Netflix",
                          fontWeight: FontWeight.w600,
                          fontSize: 18,
                          letterSpacing: 0.0,
                          color: Colors.white,
                        ),
                      ),
                    ),
                  ),
                ),

You can add a pink shadow to the Container:

Container(
            height: 60,
            decoration: BoxDecoration(
              gradient: LinearGradient(
                colors: [
                  Color.fromRGBO(255, 143, 158, 1),
                  Color.fromRGBO(255, 188, 143, 1),
                ],
                begin: Alignment.centerLeft,
                end: Alignment.centerRight,
              ),
              borderRadius: const BorderRadius.all(
                Radius.circular(25.0),
              ),
              boxShadow: [
                BoxShadow(
                  color: Colors.pink.withOpacity(0.2),
                  spreadRadius: 4,
                  blurRadius: 10,
                  offset: Offset(0, 3),
                )
              ]
            ),
            child: Center(
              child: GestureDetector(
                onTap: () {},
                child: Text(
                  'Create Account',
                  textAlign: TextAlign.left,
                  style: TextStyle(
                    fontFamily: "Netflix",
                    fontWeight: FontWeight.w600,
                    fontSize: 18,
                    letterSpacing: 0.0,
                    color: Colors.white,
                  ),
                ),
              ),
            ),
          ),

Note: I also changed the gradient colors to make it look more like the picture.

Result:

You can wrap the widget with Material widget and give it elevation and shadowColor property as per your requirement.

Material(
           borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(25.0),
           elevation: 10,
           shadowColor: Color(0xFFFF8C3B),
           child: Container(
             height: 45,
             decoration: BoxDecoration(
               gradient: LinearGradient(
                 colors: [
                   Color(0xFFFF8C3B),
                   Color(0xFFFF6365),
                 ],
                 begin: Alignment.centerLeft,
                 end: Alignment.centerRight,
               ),
               borderRadius: const BorderRadius.all(
                 Radius.circular(25.0),
               ),
             ),
             child: //rest of the existing code
         )
