This is the 2nd birthday cake I made for Lien.
Unfortunately I did not have much time to prepare the fondant myself so I used a ready made one. Disaster...
As you can see, the blue fondant is full of cracks plus it did not have the strength to stay on the cake in one piece. Just take a look on the right side of the cake…
Any way, Lien and my kids were thrilled with the overall result so I was happy too.
My kids and Lien helped me as well, so they were busy and happy!
I had to put the cake in the fridge the soonest possible :-)
What a stunning, beautiful cake! I love the colors--they go very nicely together. If my little cousin saw this, she'd go completely nuts and demand I make her one :)
ReplyDeleteNice looking cake! so cute!
ReplyDeleteThis is one of my favorite...I want to make it for my little girl too... She love Ariel...
ReplyDeleteGlad I got to have a better look at the Ariel cake! I know that your cakes always bring a smile to kids faces-well done.
ReplyDeleteWonderful looking cake !
ReplyDeleteI'd be happy to have a similar cake, and actually the color of the mairmaid's hair is like mine (I'm also a red-hair)

ReplyDeleteGreat Cake. I hate using fondant but find the wilton stuff to be easier for me than any marshmallow ones I've made, I am however very new to baking and cooking so I wouldn't take what I say into account :) Great job I don't think I would've even noticed the "mistakes" if you hadn't pointed them out :D
ReplyDeleteThis is fabulous! The flip-flop cakes are great, too. What is the sand made out of?
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry you had difficulty with commercial fondant...but the cake looked great! I wouldn't have noticed at all! Im glad everyone had a great time!
ReplyDeleteStunning. You always do such great work!
ReplyDeleteOh I love it - too cute!
ReplyDeleteThis cake is adorable! Ariel is my favorite, and I love how you used the doll with the fondant tail :)
