Clownfish Cake
This cake was made for my Mother's Group combined 3rd birthday in September. I made a few buttercakes & sandwiched them with buttercream until it resembled a large rectangular block. I then carved out the Nemo shape and, due to limited time, piped orange butter cream rosettes all over. The fins are modelling fondant and the shell shaped fins are fondant pressed into a madeleine tin and painted orange.

I made this cake for my daughter's 3rd birthday last month - she loves mermaids at the moment. The water is made from a large lamington sized chocolate cake cut in tw covered with chocolate buttercream ,draped with blue fondant. The sand is crushed biscuits. The rock is a pudding bowl chocolate cake carved into a rock shape and covered with buttercream. The mermaid is made from fondant and the torso and head are modelling fondant. The seahorses are made from granulated sugar pressed into a sandpit mould
