This is the cake I made for my hubby and I to celebrate our b-days (his is the 21st, mine is today the 23rd). We are both big Nintendo and Mario fans but he’s even a bigger game player than I am. This was really fun to make and if I hadn’t had a sick child I would have made a few more fondant characters to go along with it. Fortunately I created the top pipe/flower part yesterday. Cake is covered in fondant and fondant figures. The pipe and flower head are made from rice krispie treats and covered in fondant. He doesn’t know what I’m making for the cake so it will be a surprise for when he gets home today
