Koi Wedding Cake
Sometimes, when I'm looking for inspiration, especially for my dummy or show cakes, I turn towards treasures like these. Some time ago, I bought some silicone molding compound and used her earrings and brooch to make molds so that I could use them on a Styrofoam showcake.
At the last bridal show I had a bride that just went bonkers over that "fish" cake. She loved everything about it. We booked a consultation, went through the whole design process and in the end she still wanted that as her wedding cake. Professionally I took it as a real compliment that she liked it just the way it was. I love it when I can have that type of connection with a client.
So I recreated that dummy cake for her. I molded and painted, the fish, applied the sugar pearls to make "bubbles" and even added some "crystal doomies" to the top to give a water spray effect. We even placed it on our aquarium cake stand to add to the aquatic effect. The venue we took it to was very dark and our pictures didn't turn out very well at all, so I know you're missing out on all the effects.
