This Under the Sea cake consists of a 10? Yellow double Layer cake and 12? Chocolate double Layer cake filled and covered with non-dairy whipped frosting. The fish, seashells, & starfish are all made with marshmallow fondant that I made at least a 3 days in advance.
The undersea grass, coral, boat, and water bubbles are made with royal frosting also made at least 4 days in advance so they can harden. To make sea grass, coral ,water bubbles and boat, I basically drawn the design on a piece of paper, place waxed paper on top, pipe royal frosting onto the waxed paper to trace your drawings. Then let sit for a few days to dry and harden. You can make twice as much as you think you need
to allow for breakage.
The sand is made with brown sugar. I frosted the board with a thin layer of frosting to help adhere the brown sugar to the board. I also striped the pastry bag for the “Water” borders by placing the white frosting in half the bag and very carefully filled the other half with the blue. Make a mark under your cake board where the “front” of the cake is and start piping your border in the back first so that if they don’t meet up perfectly, it won’t show as much.
Lastly, place the boat, coral, sea grass, fish, water bubbles, sea shells and star fish on the cake. If the boat is too top heavy, you can place extra “striped” frosting around the boat to secure it in the top. It would look nice too.
