Homemade Nemo Cake

This was a Nemo cake that I made for a national competition. It was a hand sculpted cake covered in rolled fondant dyed orange. I used a small round cutter pressed into the fondant to achieve the scales look on the fish and the fins were rolled fondant that had been set out to dry and harden.

To finish the cake and achieve a wet look for the fish, I brushed the cake with watered down sugar pipping gel.
