Under the Sea!

Kyle's friend from swimming is having a baby and I was asked to do the cake for her baby shower.  The theme was baby sea animals.  I was so excited to make this cake... my favorite animal is the sea turtle, love Finding Nemo and The Little Mermaid, and am a swimmer myself!

The cake was relatively small so I didn't go too overboard on the decorating because I didn't want it to be overwhelming.  I really want to make a 3-D sea turtle as the cake topper.  I also included a tropical fish (should have been decorated as a clown fish but wanted to add another color), an angel fish with bubbles, and an octopus.  (Unfortunately, my octopus only has 6 legs, so we will pretend you just can't "see" the other two...)

The flavors are yellow cake with buttercream frosting and red velvet with milk chocolate buttercream frosting.

After sticking my finger into it this morning - oops lol - I managed to sort of fix the waves at the bottom. 
This cake was such a blast to make!

Here are some photos:

Happy bubbles!  :)
