My twin nieces requested a sparkley mermaid pincess cake, so with their father's birthday a few days before their party I asked if I could make hime the mermaid king and they agreed, and it was a huge hit! I had 6 candles on each side as they were turning 6. All BC with luster dust on bottom border and mermaid "tails". I tried Wilton sparkes in his crown. Oh well.
