HELP cake decorating advise needed URGENTLY!!!!!PLEASE

[katymac]

DD (8 tomorrow) has decided that she wants her cake decorated with dolphins

I had got pink and sparkley

I sent DH down to the late shop and have got some blue & white icing tubes and some light blue and silver writing tubes

HELP - how do I get dolphins on a cake

Please - I can't bear to disappoint her

Oblong cake in the oven

Now to work on what I have to do to the top

Also second smaller cake to be done for the party

Last year I did a lon which was easy
and the year before was a barbie (stuck in the cake) in a crinoline

So this years is espected to be good

well if you have pink and sparkly cover cake with white icing or even coloured butter icing and cut out pink dolphins.
or cut your cake into a dolphin shape and cover in your pink glittery icing

like the icing sugar idea best .. perfect for an 8 year old

Sorted - I'll see if i can photo it when I've finished (if it's any good)

do you have an ASDA near you? if so you could take a picture to them now and they'll scan it onto a cake for you by tomorrow as they are open 24/7

not on a Sunday!
Which have you gone for?

The one on the clay dolphin thread from Soupdragon

White dolphins cut out of icing

Cake covered in white and blue waves and dolphins jumping in and out (whole ones and heads and tails)

All done - but I don't know how to get a picture so you can see it?

Sorted
2nd cake on the way

hope she likes it!

she does
