The Deflated Rubber Ducky!



This was a 6" round marble cake with a chocolate ganache filling.  The rubber ducky and bubbles were made strictly out of fondant and the center border around the cake was made using a Wilton impression mold.  I used a 12mm mold to make the pearls around the base of the cake.

This cake was for my daughter's pre-school teacher who is expecting a baby boy in October.  We gave this cake to her along with a baby shower gift from her students during the end of the school year picnic.  Before the cake was presented to her however, the cake was accidentally smashed by the school director turning it into a deflated ducky.  Too bad I didn't have a chance to take a picture of the aftermath.  Nonetheless my daughter's teacher was very touched by the gesture and everything her students, parents, and school staff did for her that day.
