I did this cake for my Dad for his b-day. I'd never done a fish cake before, this is the first, it's what he wanted for his cake though! I probably shouldnt' have done the border under the face, it turned out sort of looking like a mustache lol!
This is really cute. I bet it must have been hard to do all of those scales. The border looks good and even if he does have a beard, he still looks like one happy fish to me!
lucky you. i love shopping at thrift stores to find old cake pans...i've been lucky lately and found a lot of older pans that you can't buy at the stores anymore. i'll have to look for that fish pan...my dad would flip if i showed up with a cake like this for his bday. :D
thank you! It was actually a fish cake pan shaped like that, believe it or not, I found it at a thrift store! The pic is kind of blurry, but I used a tip 104 for the scales on the back. I just wasn't so happy with the border, it gave him a bearded look

Thanks SAD. No, the scales weren't really all that hard to do on it, it was fun really, something different anyway!
very cool...what kind of pan did you use?
