Question:
Anyone know where I can find a shark cake pan? Or some kind of shark cake?
My soon to be 6 year old wants a shark birthday. I have looked at all the birthday party sites I can find. He's not into the Shark Tale movie we're just looking for a shark cake. Pictures or websites would be helpful and a plus! I would prefer to make it myself so he can help me but it doesn't matter either way. I Google shark pan and get stuff that is just cake pans ect. Please don't respond with answers that aren't really going to help me. I'm desperate! Ha! Thanks in advance.
Answers: I found a website with instructions for you!!!!!
Great White Shark Cake:
http://familyfun.go.com/recipes/special/... My suggestion for you would be to bake a large-ish rectangular cake and then carve it to look like a shark. When the cake is baked and cooled, trim the corners to make a oval/torpedo-y shark shape. After you make an oval-ish shape, take the parts that you trimmed off of the cake to fashion a dorsal fin and a tail. Use food coloring to make the icing the color you want and maybe white chocolate chips can be the teeth. Really, the possibilities are endless. I truly wish I could draw my thoughts and share them with you...I'm better with cakes than computers though. I really hope this helped.
To clarify...my answer is more if you want to do a shark silhouette...not a whole shark. two suggetions-
1. publix or winndixie or biggest supermake chain in your area sells theme cakes.they have a book to pick out from.
2. be creative-remeber the bunny cakes-cut a round cake in half and place standing up together and toothpick together.then frost and decorate.use smaller cake pieces or just use cardboard for the fin.
