i have a friend who has 7 children. i admire her so much and am constantly in awe of her ability to handle it all and still stay sane. her eldest is a beautiful red haired girl, full of smiles, but so quiet (around me anyway, i have no idea if she's like that all the time!) i absolutely love her and when i found out her birthday was coming up, i decided i was going to make her cake. she adores mermaids, so it was easy enough to think of a theme... especially after i found a mermaid tail chocolate mould and mini shell moulds on ebay.
i totally cheated and used the greens white chocolate mud cake mix, then split each box to be five different colours, cooked into two cakes...
and some sort of a marbled rainbow. the tail and shells were simply melted and then reset white chocolate... and the shards had rainbow pearls from the coles bakery aisle sprinkled onto them before they set... and then cut into pieces with a knife. easy as pie!
i had reports of it tasting great, so i guess that's a success... i'm just proud it worked! yay for finally getting somewhere with this cake making thing haha.
