Floating Muppet balloon cake

Floating Muppet balloon cake

So excited with this cake, my first attempt at making a 3d structured cake. the ballons are all hand made faces of muppet characters and some shapes as fillers, underneath in a vanilla sponge cake. the base is a vanilla sponge with blue butter cream covered in fondant. This was based on an original muppets picture, and inspired from a fab online tutorial of a lady that had made a similar version. It took about 20 hours to make and was for my Goddaughters birthday yesterday, she loved it! Have just started my own facebook page, Kel Kel’s Cakes, so excited!

Wow thank you for all the views already, would love to know what you all think of the cake x

I love this cake did you have to use a special cake stand?

Yes her dad made a special stand. It is based on a design that was used on threadcakes.

Oh might have to set my dad the challenge! I saw the pictures of another one with the stand! It’s a great cake I want to try! The other one was part cake and part rice crispies did you manage to do it all with cake?

Top was cake bottom foam did try rice crispy but didnt stick. The other lady did get all cake. Mine is cake on the bottom blue square as well

Oh thanks I am going to start by setting my dad the challenge! Thanks

Getting the bend in the right place and angle is the tricky part x
