I baked 3 chocolate 8 inch round cakes, layered and crumb coated them with vanilla buttercream for this Super Mario Brothers Birthday Cake Design.
I used a light blue fondant to cover the cake. First I used an 8 inch cake board to make the circle for the top of the cake, using cotton string measured the circumference of the cake to know how long to roll the fondant for the sides. After measuring and cutting, I loosely rolled it onto my rolling pin and unrolled it onto the side of the cake, using a clean paintbrush with clear vanilla extract to seal the seams.
The rest of the decorations were made out of fondant and attached by painting the back side with clear vanilla extract. The Mario on top of the cake was a bought toy.
