Tiki Hut Fiji
Fun Cake to make for someone who wanted something different than the traditional seashell tropical cake. Couple was getting married in Fiji and this was for their reception. Palm Trees were molded and dried for a week or two ahead of time, as well as the top of the hut...Flowers in side were of gum paste and lay on the island shape; fish and reeds decorated right on cake.
Very well done.Havent seen a cake better than this.
I love it but, why is the water not blue? Did they ask for a white cake?
i love this cake. it will be perfect for my 25th birthday luau
OH WOW Just beautiful!
This is one of my favorites!
Sooo cool I love it! You say the top was made of gumpaste? What did you use under to keep the shape? And how did you get that nice realistic looking hue on it?
You did a fantastic job, I love this cake.
Absolutely excellent! I love your talent. Did you fly to Fiji to set it up??
HAHA, no...i WISH we went to Fiji to set it up! It was on Lake Washington.
Very creative. This is definetely one of my favorites.
how did you get the top to keep it's shape? Did you put something underneath it while it dried. I have to do a suprise Luau cake for an anniversary and I think that would be perfect!! Minus the Fiji shape of course. If you could give me any pointers I would really appreciate it. I can give you my email if you can. This cake is awesome! Good job.
The water in the south pacific...as well as most of the Caribbean is the palest of blue, must not be showing up very well on your monitor is all!
wow, this is great!!! amazing work!
Ginger, I was just asked to do a luau cake for a birthday party. I too would like some more details on the top of the hut. What is under the top section and how did you make the grass for the hut- it looks like individual pieces of fondant. this is fabulous and would really appreciate you sharing.
WOW!
Ginger, I would love to get details on how to make this cake - it refreshingly different. I am throwing a Labor day Tiki party and would love to make it....Thanks!
How in the world did you keep the palm trees from falling over? This cake is absolutely stunning.

Outstanding.
That is absolutely gorgeous! What a beautiful idea and execution!
