My friend Kate’s son is having a Pool Party for his 9th birthday today, and she asked me to make him a cake. She didn’t have any particular cake in mind so I used my imagination and my extra-large round cake tin and came up with this. I think it turned out pretty well.
No, Ella, there are not whole sharks buried in the blue icing!
The cake was delicious and a huge success. Some squabbling over the shark fins but I chanted in an annoying sugar sweet voice “You get what you get and you don’t get upset!”
Trish, you’re a legend.
Fantastic! What can’t you do?
@Calico – it didn’t even occur to me to make enough shark fins for each kid! D’oh! Next time I’ll do a sharkfin cupcake for each party guest
