Cara's Sweet Sixteen Luau Cake

This is the cake that I worried about for the past 4 months. I wanted it to be special for my little girl's sweet sixteen luau. The bottom tier was a 10-inch white cake with raspberry filling. The middle tier was an 8-inch white cake with pineapple, coconut, and macadamia nut filling. The final tier was a 6-inch white cake with strawberry filling. All the layers were covered in turquoise colored buttercream and covered in white chocolate shells, sea stars, and coral. Thanks for looking!

Very nice! How did you do the coral? I just do simple chocolate molds with as little extra color as possible.

I had a pattern for the coral. I placed some wax paper over the pattern and traced the pattern using the melted chocolate. Then I let it dry, When it's time to use them I peel the paper off just like you would royal icing flowers. I think the coral added a lot to the cake. I looked at a lot of cakes on this site before I decided on this design. Thanks for the compliments.
