Whooooo lives in a pineapple...

...under the sea?? If you have children you know exactly who I'm talking about. Yellow? Porous? Goofy and loved by children and adults all over the world..Yes, that's right. SPONGEBOB! One of my favorite people in the whole wide world, who I've known since she was in her mommie's tummy,  loves him and I had the opportunity to gift her with a wonderful cake for her baby shower! A Spongebob themed bassinet cake to be exact. I have been waiting to try out a bassinet cake for a while but I wasn't going to make for just anyone! So when I got the baby shower invite I was so very excited, because I could finally make this awesome cake for an awesome young lady!

I started out with my own white cake recipe, from scratch of course. After I cooled them I piped a butter cream border to hold in the fillling.

"What was the filling?", you ask..strawberries and whipped cream! (I sweetened and whipped the cream myself)

I filled the butter cream border with the whipped cream

Topped the cream with sliced strawberries that I allowed to macerate in sugar over night

Then I placed the top layer and cover the whole them in butter cream(from scratch)

Then I took a cake round, cut it in half and did the same thing, This would be the hood.

While the assembled cake was resting in the fridge I got to work on the figures. BABY SPONGE BOB AND PATRICK!!!!

Now it was time to start the detailing of the cake. I made about 4 batch of butter cream(2 at a time)

I started with the ruffles. Yellow and white alternating as you can see.

Just a different angle. I added ruffles around the sides and up the back.

I put the finishing details on my little figures. I used white fondant and just colored it accordingly and shaped away!

After the ruffles were done I rolled out a little fondant blanket and added  more details. i was having sooo much fun!

Side angle. Almost done

Back view

All done!!

Sponge Bob and Patrick ready for their close up!
