Pea in a Pod Baby Shower Cake
The shower was for a mom of two boys expecting a little girl.
We made a two-tiered cake out of white chocolate buttercream frosting with a raspberry filling.
White fondant was used on the outside of the top tier and we dyed the bottom tier to get a baby-pink color.
We made the pea pod also out of fondant, and added the pink pea in the middle of the three to represent the girl.
We dyed more white fondant to a darker pink color (the two color pinks for the shower) and rolled them out and cut into thin strips. We brushed the backs with water and layed them evenly around the cake.
We made the leaves and vine out of fondant and layed them underneath the pea pod.
Then we cut out little flower shapes using a cookie cutter and "glued them" around the bottom of the cake. I then piped buttercream frosting around the base of the top tier to cover up any imperfections.
