Homemade Pregnant Belly Cake
I am posting this Pregnant Belly Cake because I have tons of request for it and wanted help those out that would like to make it. I started out with 4 X 6in round cakes and 1x14 in, 1x12, and 1x10. I leveled all the cake off and then leveled them in the middle to allow for enough filling. I started with the 14 in and frosted a thin amount of cake in between each layer of cake all the way to the 10 in. The I did the same with 2 of the 6 in for each breast of the bust.
Next use a bread cutting knife to crave out the belly shape and breast shape. Frost with buttercream that crusts. Use Viva paper to smooth the belly. Use fondant to shape the base of the foot. Then make 5 small balls, each the size of a toe of a baby, place in order of the top of foot and place on frosted belly cake. Clean board of all frosting and crumbs and roll out the colored fondant. Start with the breast and lay down over the belly, smooth out the belly and shape around the bust. Use pizza cutter to remove extra and shape the fondant at the bottom to look like a dress. Add fondant details and bow.
