Use a bundt cake pan or an oven proof ring mold pan. You will need to make two cakes or buy two bundt cakes at the store.

Cut a section according to the pattern to the far left and place cakes on a platter or cardboard wrapped with foil like the figure eight pattern. Frost cakes with chocolate frosting.

Garden Cake Decorating

Directions:

This cake was for a professor who is a marine biologist at Suny Brock port.

This is a 3 layer cake. The bottom and middle layers were first frosted with Wilton's white butter cream frosting and then covered with Wilton's ready-made fondant tinted a royal blue. The blue was kneaded in partially, leaving a swirled effect - in order to resemble a sea or ocean. The top layer was frosted in beige butter cream and was meant to look like an island. She used brown sugar and cinnamon sugar for the sand, and green tinted coconut for the grass. The palm trees were part of Top's party set for Jurassic park and the oranatang sitting underneath the trees was part of a Pet Shoppe set.
