After putting your cakes together, freeze before icing. Layer the white icing and spead smooth with dampened spatula. Refreeze. Outline with toothpick then outline with icing. Do small stars in the large areas and flatten down icing with finger dipped in cornstarch for the animal faces and bodies. Pipe lots of stars on the sides of the cake. When everything is completed re-outline with dark icing.

I threw my friend a Noah's Ark shower. I bought the Fisher Price Little People Noah's Ark to decorate the cake. While I would love to take credit for the cake, it was the baker's creativity at my local cake shop that created this amazing dessert!

I made this cake using several stacked tiers: first, a 10" round single-layer for the bottom. Then, the Ark is made out of 2 small oval layers (5x7"), and a little loaf cake. The Ark roof is two graham crackers leaning together, and iced in chocolate buttercream. The Ark house and base is also iced in chocolate buttercream, and textured with a decorating comb. The 10" layer is iced in light blue buttercream, and textured with a spatula or spoon to look like waves. I piped a C scroll border in darker blue striped with white, around the base of the 10" tier- to look like waves.

The animals are the fun of this cake and cupcakes! They are made with multi colored icings and mostly round (large and small) tips. I use large round to pipe the base or head shape, and then use the little round tip to make facial features, like nose/nostrils, mouth, ears, and smile. Using a #3 tip I made the snakes, mice, and birds. I used a star tip and small round to make the lambs. The elephants ears are with a petal tip, #104. The male lion and giraffe has a tip 2 pull out mane. The cupcakes were carrot cake iced in cream cheese and decorated with the buttercream animal heads. They were a hit at the party! :-)

Bake 1 10in, 1 8in and 1 5in. Cut and fill cakes. apply thin layer of BC and let stand in fridge to settle. Color fondant using gel colors and knead until nice and soft. Roll out fondant onto powdered sugared surface and make sure it's nice and even and large enough to cover your cake. Lay fondant on top of cake and start smoothing sides with hands and smoothing tool. Cut away extra fondant with paring knife or pizza cutter. Repeat for other tiers. Stack the 2nd tier on top of the first one by inserting wooden dowels making sure not to go out of the 8in diameter. place some bc on top of cake before placing 8in on top of 10in and repeat with 5in. Insert long wooden dowel through all 3 cakes to insure stablity. Deco using cookie cutters and fondant. Animals are modeled out of gumpaste and colored using gel colors. Enjoy!
