Adorable Homemade Pink and Yellow 3D Carousel Cake

I made this Carousel Cake for my baby shower. It is made up of double layer 9″ round strawberry cake for the bottom. The top is cake sitting on a round cake board. It was baked in a metal bowl and cut to shape. The bottom was frosted then a round cake board was placed on top and covered with another thin layer of frosting. A glass holds up the top piece which I decorated with star shapes to cover the wide base bottom. The poles are dowel rods covered with a plastic ribbon on which frosted animal cookies were glued. The one in the front had fallen down because of the humidity with it being an outside party.

The frosting was just regular vanilla frosting from a jar. Don’t use creamy, it doesn’t have a good consistancy for decorating. No need to buy expensive decorators frosting, you can always add powdered sugar if you need to make your frosting thicker.
