Coolest Little Mermaid Cake

We baked a 12″ round Madeira cake for this Little Mermaid cake then shaved sections from it putting them back on top of the remaining cake. A butter cream filling was made not forgetting to add the all important Nielsen-Massey Vanilla Extract. Then we covered the cake in ivory fondant. Meanwhile we made a slab of rice crispie treat then molded it to form the area the Ariel sits on. This too was covered in fondant then the whole thing was airbrushed in Kroma Color blue.

To make Ariel we used ordinary fondant but added CMC or tylose powder to make it stiffen up. Another thing we did to ensure she doesn’t droop is to insert an uncooked spaghetti stick, this provides better support whilst the model dries (don’t forget to tell the recipient about it).

To make the starfish just cut out the shape from fondant using a callix cutter then pinch each section to form the shape. The whole thing once complete was airbrushed in confectioners glaze but not before adding some lustre dust to Ariel’s bottom section.
