I'd rather be fishing...



Heather is just awesome...she orders fun cakes for her family and keeps coming to me for them! This one was for her son. She had said he enjoyed the outdoors but was really into fishing. She had wanted a cake about the same size as the Greenbay Packers cake which was an 8 inch and 6 inch. When you think about it, it doesn't seem like much at all, but when its all finished, it's a pretty good sized cake! The bottom tier was a white with raspberry filling and the top was a chocolate with chocolate filling. Both tiers were frosted in buttercream and covered in fondant. What says fishing than fishing itself right? The top of the cake isn't big at all so in order the make the best use of the cake's space I decided to have the "water" running of the sides of the cake. The fisherman was propped on top and the only thing not edible with this cake is the fishing pole and the fishing line. I threw in a few "rocks", a mallard duck, and if you can take a closer look, the fish are supposed to look like bass and rainbow trout :) Cute right? Thanks for the order Heather, and i hope your son had a fabulous birthday!
