Welcome, y’all. Today we are going on a little underwater journey. This mermaid cake was requested as a birthday surprise for Anna Cat.
Detail of the mermaid’s tail – I used the end of a round piping tip to push into the fondant to cut the scales. I love the dimension that it added to the tail.
The mermaid cake was made using single layer 8” and 12” rounds and served approximately 30. The bottom layer is covered with buttercream, and the “island” is covered with fondant. The mermaid and shells are sculpted from fondant.
