Fish Cake

Special request for a special birthday boy turning six - a fish cake! I used a molded pan in the shape of a fish and then made a few modifications after it was out of the oven. It is strawberry cake (because I wanted it to look like a salmon, and then be pink when cut into...) with vanilla buttercream. If I had a fish cake request again.... I would forgo the molded pan and just carve it myself. I think a side view would have looked better, rather than the 3-d top view. But it turned out pretty good and I think it will be a fun cake for a birthday celebration. Happy Birthday, Tate!!
