I have been looking at all the great fishing/fish cakes on here. I really love the ones is the fishes head coming out one side of the cake and it's tail out the other. However, I can't figure out how it is made. Is it fondant? Does anyone have any fish making secrets? Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!

Well, first you introduce a daddy fish and a mommy fish. Then after they fall in love and getting married . ..

Oh, wait.

Yes, those cakes are the cutest ever. They usually rice krispie treats mashed into the shapes of the head and tails, covered with a smear of buttercream and then fondant over that. use more fondant for details and silver and green or blue dusts for highlighting. It's really freehand.

Here's a tutorial Anamado did on a pink fish cake -- it's different than what you're describing but perhaps it will help give you ideas. http://www.cakecentral.com/cake-decorating-ftopic-606308-0-days0-orderasc-.html
