I enjoy baking but I don’t love decorating cakes! I find it to be stressful even with the most simple decorations but I still like attempting to make them from time to time.

This cake was really pretty simple to make! I used a box cake mix, a simple frosting recipe and store bought Mermaid Decorations.

(5 drops of blue food coloring and 3 drops of green)
1 package of Mermaid Decorations

Then cool completely completely before decorating.
Notes
