For this Ocean cake, I started with a Costco cake with simple blue and white border, but I wanted blue frosting. Wilton’s makes a food coloring spray in lots of different colors, perfect for coloring the simple store bought cake (Spray color found at Michael’s).
I then used graham cracker crumbs for the beach, gummy candies, candy rocks, and sour apple straws and green fruit roll-ups for the seaweed (Most from the bulk food section). The last thing I added was blue gel bubbles to give it a little more dimension.
It took about 20 minutes and it turned out great. My daughter loved it!
This is so cute. Where did you find gummy fish that color. Or aren’t they gummy. They look more real like that! Very cute cake. Be great for a cook out or something also.
I got them in the bulk food section. There are Haribo clown fish, regular Swedish fish and gummi sea life which included the starfish, regular fish, seahorses, shells and jelly fish.
