I don't do these types of things very often but certain young ladies can easily charm!! Hope you like it Lil.
There is no fondant used at all here, only buttercream icing
.
The water is Wilton color gel or blue raspberry jello made with only half the water and we have used candy cane stick flagpoles with fruit roll-op flags.
The bears are teddy graham cookies of course, and we have used gumball beach balls, pretzel ladders, blue Smartie candies on the border and the slide and surf boards are fashioned out of Tootsie rolls!
The slide is held up by a dyed ice cream cone and more candy sticks. Blue sugar helps create the water in the slide and finally sour candy rings serve as the floats in the pool.
How beautiful! Well done!
hHat is amazing, must have taken you ages to do that!
Thanks Karen, it didn't take as long as you might think. This design came from a magazine that the young lady had kept for a couple of years so it was my first time doing it, which always takes longer. Now that I have figured it out, I could probably do it in a couple of hours.
This is great!
What do you do for the frosting?
Thanks. The frosting is just plain colored buttercream. The pool is blue raspberry jelly but only use half the water in the instructions on the package.
