MERMAID CAKE.... AND PINK TREATS FOR MORGAN.



I smiled as i heard a little girl's voice fill with delight after I pressed the bell to announce that i had arrived, to deliver the Mermaid cake and other small pink treats.
Yes, today Morgan was having her Pool Party to celebrate her turning 6.

And a perfect summers day it was - for such a party.

There she was - dressed in her pretty blue bathers and a sparkling tiara....with her older sister standing along side her - both with beaming smiles.

Yes, i had created a soft pretty cake to go with such an occasion....

Pastel pinks and whites.... A Mermaid themed cake, with shimmering pearls.
Around the base of the cake I had placed two layers of fondant - depicting waves... for the seahorses, starfish and shells to sit against.
The cake sat upon a white square stand - again, with pink waves in keeping with the theme - and Morgan's name...with 6 pearls ....one for each of her years.

Six tall pink candles standing behind the Mermaid, dipicting sea grass.



A platter of pink cake truffles - in little white cases - with a flower on each one.

Ever so pastel pink vanilla bean cookies in the shape of cupcakes - again with a little flower on each one.

And Creamy Soda jelly cups - such a pretty pink in the sunlight.

I handed Morgan a little clear box with a pink ribbon tied around it - containing 4 of the little cupcake cookies...as i wished her a very Happy Day.

  6. This almost makes me wish I could do my childhood all over again. This time I wouldn't be a "tomboy", but would choose to be a fancy little girl, all done up in pink and bubbles. You absolutely knocked it out of the park this time. (As usual). Sweet and oh, so beautiful.

    thank you petal for your comment. I used an impression mould and then painted her little bodice woth *Pink Shimmer* and then painted her tail with *Pink Sheen AirbrushColour* from AmeriColour...so as to give it the sheen effect.
    I also dusted her hair with White Pearl Dust so as to make it shine in the daylight.

    thank you so much for that comment.
    It was such a joy making a *littke girls* cake.
    I pictured what i wanted - and it came together just as i had hoped... i love every aspect of Caking and take great joy out of the *designing side* of all my cakes. Even better when you see a little childs face light up when they first see it. :)
