I’d wanted to make something fun and different for my daddy’s 75th birthday. Since my daddy and my son are very close – they kinda’ like soulmates – I decided to make a cake with figurine of both of them. I picked a swimming pool theme as a symbol of fun and made this Swimming Pool Birthday Cake.
The base of the cake is vanilla cake with strawberry jam as filling. I put choco wafers around the cake, so it will look like bricks. Then I put a tiny ladder at the side, made of fondant. Here’s the exciting part, I put two figurine made of fondant, one represent my daddy, the other represent my son. Both with hats.
The water is made of rolled fondant. I mixed white and blue colorant all together, so the colour looks like water. Around the top of the cake, I put tiny chocolate balls. My family were very excited when they saw the cake. They said that the cake is too cute to be cut.
So cute!wafers on the sides was a great idea
