Sea Turtle Cake





I'm the busiest person on the planet right now, and so I have very little time to write anything about this cake. But it was for my sister's 16th birthday. Her favorite animal is a sea turtle... :) As far as taste goes it was a lemon cake with lemon curd filling and vanilla buttercream. Super tasty. I did this cake without any decorating tips since I have very few. (word to the wise, writing anything in icing without a tip is hard.)
The turtle is a lemon cupcake covered with green fondant and painted over with food coloring. But even though he was edible, in the end no one actually ate him, he was too cute.

  1. This is amazing! I love the idea of covering a cupcake in fondant to make the turtle. Brilliant.
