This is a pretty simple cake, just a fondant covered cake with blue and green gumpaste circles.
This cake does have a funny story to go with it. Now I deliver cakes to the Tennessee Aquarium all the time, I even have a special little place to park around back on the loading dock. But when I go to deliver this cake, there's a huge Bluegrass Festival going on, and the way to my safe, secure little loading dock is completely blocked off by barricades and festival goers. So what's a girl to do??
I pulled into a little drive area that is in front of the aquarium, but still too far to carry a cake. I wasn't even supposed to be there - it's for the carriages only. After speaking with one of the staff, they decided that it would be best if I just popped up on the sidewalk and pull straight to the main entrance!
So I do, and as I'm riding on the sidewalk, I pass a policeman who is also on the sidewalk. He is giving me a wild look so I roll down the window and say "I'm here with the cake." Evidently, that was more than enough to satisfy him!! Being that close to the door I was in and out in a flash! I don't know if I can ever go back to the loading dock again!!
