I made this mermaid cake for a second birthday. I think the "doll cakes" using the Wilton Wonder Mold pan turn out so great - I remember having one for a birthday when I was a child. I just love the look of the waves on the doll cake, the seashells, the mermaid's tail...it all came together so perfectly! The cupcakes were made to match the cake. I made chocolate for the tops of the cupcakes in the shape of seashells to go with the theme. Aside from the chocolate on the cupcakes and the doll body - the cake and cupcakes are all decorated with buttercream.
