Country Baby Bath Cake

Country Baby Bath Cake

Country Baby Bath Cake

This baby cake was created with a total of six 16" round cakes stacked with buttercream between them, then cut into a barrel shape. I cut strips of marshmallow fondant, distressed them with a pizza cutter, then stained them with brown icing color mixed with lemon oil. Once they were dry to the touch, yet still pliable, I attached each slat to the cake. Then, I banded them together with another piece of fondant across.

I put marshmallow fondant on the top of the cake, distressed it a bit, colored it a shade darker than the outside slats, and then let it dry. After it dried I applied clear piping gel all over it.

The hand water pump is actually Rice Krispie treats shaped around a wooden dowel that was inserted into the cake board then covered with marshmallow fondant. The water going from the spout to the cake is actually pulled sugar with piping gel over it. All decorations, including: soap, wash cloth, western style duckies, bubbles, flowers and grass are made of marshmallow fondant.

Happy Baking!

Deborah
