The Mermaid Cake Is Finished!
Oct 10th, 2008 by Sylvia
I made a Mermaid cake for a friend’s little girl today. She showed me a picture and I did my own thing. I used premade Wilton fondant which I flavored with clear vanilla and colored it this crazy pink color. I used Wilton Rose and Light Rose for all the pink. I made a water fall from white fondant and Wilton Aqua. I marbled the water so that it would look a little more interesting. And I used golden yellow for some of the sea sells
I used white and pink fondant to make the “pearls” all around the base of the cakes. I marbled some of the pink for that, too. And I used small white “pearls” for bubbles in the water.
I used a shell motif candy mold to make the star fish and sea shells out of fondant.
The cake is white and has white buttercream between the layers.
That is beautiful! What a nice friend you are! I’m sure the little girl was thrilled.
