Under the  sea birthday cake

Under the sea  themed 3 tier birthday Cake

It's a Vanilla Sponge cake with classic Butter cream filled with peaches. I used 8 cakes (two 10"cakes, two 9"cakes and four 6" cakes) for this party.This is how I did it,

Day 1 : Created fondant figures with white fondant and hand-painted them

Day 2 : Baked 8 cakes



Day 3 : Created a big batch of butter cream in the morning and started crumb coating all my cakes. Transferred each cake to fridge to set the crumb coat. Then I created Under the sea themed colors Lavender, light green and light pink buttercream and started with the final coat of icing on each cake. Then I assembled the large cake (10inch) on the cake stand. I finished the decorations of 10 inch cake first and added the fondant details and sugar pearls. Then i finished the decorations on 9 inch cake and added it to the top of 10 inch cake. I used dowels and plastic straws in each cake for extra support. The last cake was frosted and decorated on the same day too. I transferred it to the fridge.
