Cool Little Mermaid Cake

For this Little Mermaid cake I got the pan on eBay since it was an old model but I liked it because it had Arielle’s full body. I baked one batch of cake in it- that would be one box of cake mix, and make sure to let it fully cool or else the outlines that would help you decorate the details will crumble and be blurry.

I decorated the cake with a buttercream and made each color with Wilton food colorings. For Arielle’s eyes and mouth I used fondant. I suggest making the cake with a vanilla cake as opposed to a chocolate cake so that when you decorate the details of this somewhat difficult cake the chocolate crumbs won’t get into the buttercream so your cake comes out as neat as possible.
