This cake was made for an arts and crafts loving 10 year old.
Started off with a confetti cake leveled and iced with chocolate frosting.
Rolled out some white fondant.
Cut out a shape and shaved down the sides bit by bit until it would fit on the top of the cake. I just eye-balled it. Smoothed out any jagged knife cuts with my fingers and some powdered sugar.
Mixed up a few colors for the paint. I did a thin consistency of frosting and used Wilton gels for the colors.
I placed the fondant palette on the cake first and then added the paint colors.
I improvised for my border and combined all my leftover colored frosting into one piping bag fitted with a #22 tip. The consistency was a little thin, but it ended up looking like dripping paint a bit, which I liked.
Simple and cute.
Made a quick triangle pennant using my Silhouette software and the Waterbrush font. Used a paintbrush for the pennant's pole.
She loved it!
Happy Birthday, Brenna!
