Under the water birthday party



Here is the photos of our mermaid birthday cake.


I used this recipe but made it with brown cane sugar and added blueberries. The icing on the top is just creme fraiche with no sugar in it but with berries and a light dusting of icing sugar on top.

This is the first time I made a sugar paste cake topper. I followed this tutorial but changed it to be a mermaid.
Made it with my daughter and it was so much fun to make. All the years of playing with play-dough finally paid off.


These are the dolphin sandwiches and octopus sausages.


We have even made crab plates using red paper plates and sticking legs and pincers made out of glittery red crafting paper.
