My daughter was having a cake walk for the school carnival and wanted a Shamu cake. When I saw the (awesome) Shamu cake on this website I wanted to give it a shot. I followed her wise advice and did tail and fins 3 days early.
Shamu’s were rice crispie treats covered in white fondant and then covered again in black fondant. I cut away as needed to expose the white areas. Pink fondant tongue, chocolate chip eyes and white “sprikles” for the baby’s teeth.
The water was three colors. Pure white store bought frosting, blue sparkle gel, and a mixture of the two. I just blobbed the three colors on the cake, then ran a skewer through to mix them.
Finally, I poured more blue gel on the edges to spill over. It was was a fun project and very much loved by the kids!
