...we had the coolest ever birthday cake/jello! :lol:

very cool! are the fishies edible?

Oh that's cool...

Holy crap. I bet she made it herself too...that's the kicker....

Awesome!!!

:)

No, fishies not edible, but take-homeable!

Yes, we made it. beest baked the cake, i made the jello along the engineering principles we developed after a cool-but-not-so-spectacular prototype on Weds.

:lol:

That is indeed awesome.

Monster, your skills at doing creative and clever things like this and making costumes are really amazing.
Although, I bet the other mums are all jealous now.

Oh wow.
You are the coollest Mum evah!

Thats awesome! How did you keep the fishes upright?

Should I give away trade secrets? hehe

We did the jello in layers, in each layer I cut slits and partially inserted the fish upside down before pouring the next layer.

Thanks for all your lovely comments, as you can tell, we're pretty proud of this one :D

I've been looking for a good reason to encase stuff in jello. Thanks monster!!

by the way that is a basic sponge cake underneath for the sea bed.

Whew. For a minute, there, I though you were going to say that you dunked him in an aquarium for his birthday.

he'd've loved that.....

My kids are too old for that- I'm gonna try it for ME - Me I tell ya. I'm totally inspired. Great job Monstah!
