I made this cake for my daughter's 12th Bday. The image in my head didn't translate as well, but I know what to do in the future. The volcano, (which we put a yogurt cup in to hold the dry ice effect that you can see somewhat in the bottom picture :)) looks more like a coconut than a volcano, but next time, I will make it a little more proportionate to the bottom cake :) All BC white cake swirled blue to mimic waves inside :) The "waves" on the sides are painted with watered down food coloring paste and a large brush to make it look like waves- the white parts on the top are supposed to look like where it crashed on the shore :) The picture doesn't show it as well :)The bottom is also carved at an angle, but that isn't very evident in the picture either... It was fun though- TFL :)
