The Cat in the Hat:




So my cousin was having her son's first birthday and doing the Cat in the Hat theme. I googled some ideas and found one she liked and tried to replicate it best I could. It was a 3 tired cake. The layers were covered in homemade fondant that I had dyed bright colors. I haven't worked a lot with fondant because many people don't care for the flavor. The top layer is supposed to replicate his hat. I couldn’t get it crooked like it’s supposed to be and it was white fondant that I hand painted the stripes on. The balls around the bottom are fondant as well. It turned out well but it wasn’t as great as I expected. I also made a small smash cake as well that was frosted in buttercream with small fondant accents. She was pleased which made me happy!!
