To stretch out the last few days of summer I decided to make a “Tropical Oasis” cake to put on display at the Farmer’s Market. For the past two weekends I have also been going to Rice’s Market in New Hope, PA to do some advertising and the display was a big hit there as well.
The cake is covered in marblized blue fondant to look like a clear blue ocean. To get the beautiful swirls I combined light blue, dark blue, and white fondant. I kneeded it just to combine so that the colors were not completely mixed together. The cute sea animals I made using a silicone mold. The floating island is sand colored fondant covered in brown sugar and the palm trees are made of gumpaste dusted with green petal dust and wired together with brown florist tape.
