Mario Cake

For our roommate’s 30th birthday, we made a Mario themed cake.

There aren’t many pictures of the process, but the coin block was made with lemon and strawberry cake, with whipped cream between the layers. The outside was covered in buttercream and then we applied colored fondant. The Mario himself was made out of molded rice krispy treats, with the brim of his cap and the fire flower made out of gum paste.
