Little Mermaid Birthday!

Happy Birthday 4th Gemma! Gemma's mom, Gretchen, wanted me to make a Little Mermaid cake for her daughter's 4th birthday, and since I didn't have that much time, I had to buy a toy cake topper for the top of the cake. But the cool part is that underneath the topper, there's a plastic tube and there's Little Mermaid stickers in there for Gemma to play with! This is a chocolate cake with fudge filling covered in fondant. All of the decorations (the seaweed, coral, fishes, starfishes, and sea turtle) are made out of fondant. The rocks are made out of chocolate rocks, and the sand is made out of smashed graham crackers. I hope this birthday was a special birthday for you Gemma! I had a lot of fun making this cake!

Here are some cute fishy humor:
- What is the most valuable fish? The goldfish!
- Why is it so easy to weigh fish? Because they have their own scales!
- What kind of fish goes well with peanut butter? Jellyfish!
- Why do whales sing? Because they can't talk!
- What has no beginning, end, or middle, and touches every continent? The ocean!
- What happens when you throw a green rock into the Red Sea? It gets wet!
