Decorating By keonicakes Updated 17 Feb 2010 , 3:46pm by grama_j
Here's what I want to do. This is for my baby girls 1st bday in 2 weeks.
This will be a carousel.
Little Mermaid themed party.
bottom tier 14" petal pan
12" petal pan on top of 14".
Possible edible image wrap on bottom cake (mermaid/under the sea)
rotating carousel with mermaids made of sugar paste or chocolate
would like a 6-8" clearance (height)
Then comes the top of the cake:
approx. 8" high using stacked cakes, bottom being 8" petal then tapering up to pointed top.
Now... These are my ideas....... I would love to hear yours. Completely open to suggestions, changes (except theme). How you would go about this, etc.
Also, going to ice this in bettercreme with fondant accents of some kind...
Here is a couple that I have done........ the first one is made of white chocolate on a turn table above the cake......
