It's The Thought That Really Counts Isn't It...

My dad wanted me to make him a special cake for fathers day-I decided to try a fish cake-a rock bass specifically. I think if you take off you glasses and squint one eye it looks like a fish!
Actually, I'm kinda proud of myself with it. It was my first carved cake and my first time working with fondant. My colors are off but I just need more pratice there.
It looks great! You did an especially good job on the fins!
i agree i think it's a good job, this doesn't look like an easy cake, be proud of it. You know we are always the most critical of our work.
the cutting of the cake wasen't as bad as I thought. I used the Nicole method-I unwrapped it to the last plastic wrap (per instructions on here) and then used a magic marker to draw an outline on the wrap. My serrated knife went right through the cake and wrap with no problems!
I think it turned out great! I'm too chicken to even think about carving cakes or making a 3D cake! WTG!!
