Coolest Pregnant Belly Cake 18

Pregnant Belly Cake
I made this pregnant belly cake for my best friend's daughter's baby shower. Her colors were pink and brown, it was her first baby and I wanted the shower to be extra girlie and not to have just the normal kind of sheet cake. I made the belly part from the large Betty Crockers bake n fill bowl. The breasts are made from two smaller bake n fill bowls. I put a vanilla pudding filling in the belly and then put it on top of a 9" round cake.
To cover the cakes I first colored white fondant with brown gel coloring, I added just enough to make a flesh color for the breasts. Then I colored white fondant with pink and rolled it out to place over the belly and half the breasts to form a strapless dress. With the remaining fondant and more of the brown gel coloring I made the bow.
The "pearl necklace" was made from scraps that were left after forming the dress. This cake was a hit, I made one for practice the week before the shower and took it to my work for everyone to critique and everyone loved it. The guests at the shower thought I had bought it somewhere and were all amazed to hear I had made it that morning. I was very proud of it!
