Cool Pokemon Pikachu Cake

For this Pokemon Pikachu cake I baked an eight inch Milo cake from www.raspberricupcakes.com cut it into thirds.

I reversed the filling and covering, so the filling was Milo Ganache and the covering Condensed Milk buttercream which I tinted sky blue.

I made the puffy fondant clouds using a cutter from Not Just Cakes by Annie, I layed cling wrap over the rolled out fondant and then pushed the cutter down, this gives them dimension.  I hand modelled the Pikachu from yellow fondant that I had added Tylose too, to give it better strength.  I hand cut the yellow lightening bolts.

I added purchased sour sweets around the bottom of the cake, I finished the board with yellow wrapping paper and white ribbon.   I added a fondant message using Windsor Clixstix Groovy font.  The number is also from the same font.

The cake was devoured by the kids, but luckily they left some for us to enjoy over the next few days.
