Pokemon Go is the biggest craze right now and it didn't surprise me when I got this last minute request for a Pokemon birthday cake. The cake was covered in light blue of fondant, with yellow stars in different sizes. I knew there were going to be Pokemon toys around the cake so the only other decoration was a round rice crispy treat covered in fondant to look like a Poke ball. I use a large round cookie cutter to make the black circle and used a smaller one to make the white circle in the center. The lightning bolts were made from yellow fondant and gum paste, which allows them to stand upright. Lastly, the name was made by rolling a thin rope of yellow fondant and shaped into the letters, tacked in place with sugar water. I pipped a little buttercream to hold the toys in place and the cake was finished!
I'm really proud how the cake came together with such a quick turn around and Jacob really liked it too!
