Dr Seuss Baby Shower Cake
Directions for the Dr Seuss Baby Shower Cake: The hat cake was made with 4 6" cakes. Stack and fill the cakes, then carve out the sides a little to make it a bit flopsy. Cover with rolled fondant. Use blue painters tape to tape of 2 white stripe sections. (Make sure it is on there secure so no red seeps through) I used an airbrush machine to spray on the red, but you could paint on watered down food coloring or just use red fondant and add 2 white strips of fondant. The bottom was 2 9" cakes covered in fondant. Again I used and airbrush to color green, but you could paint or just use green fondant. Put some supports in and place the hat on top, and dowel down the center. Use your imagination and create your own Dr. Seuss like scene! I have also made this cake with a birthday scene (table, balloons, mini-cake, and fish). I used fondant and cut out the baby clothesline shapes with an exacto knife- onesies, socks, bibs, trees, etc. Attach to cake. Now is the fun part!!! Get some black food coloring. I find that airbrsh coloring works the best because it is already a watery liquid, but you can use gel colors and dilute with vodka or a clear extract. Now- Paint, Paint, Paint!!! Using a new (never been used with regular paint) tiny brush, paint on the black outline details. The great part about this cake is you do not have to be perfect with the painting! So relax, and have fun! I am not a pro, just a stay at home mom with 3 little kids- if I can do it so can you! Dr Seuss Baby Shower Clothesline Cake  See more cute baby shower cakes
