I made this pregnant belly cake for a friend whose daughter was having a boy and she is an elegant and sophisticated girl. I made the cake out of Pillsbury confetti cake mix and added a little extra to it to make it moist. I made the cakes the day before to ensure it was completely cool before icing it.
I used the Wilton soccer pan for the belly and two anchor dishes for the tatas. After the cakes were cooled, over night, I iced the cakes with butter cream icing. It was a thin layer to ensure the fondant stayed in place and the icing needs to be smoothed out as to not make bumps in the fondant. I used Wilton blue fondant and rolled the fondant on a mat for design and then outlined it with butter cream icing which I made chocolate by adding Nestle Quick powder to it.
It was the first time I ever worked with fondant, hope you all enjoy.
