Another Pokémon cake request! From my nephew, so one of my favorite people 😊 He wanted specific Pokémon incorporated, and I wanted the finished cake to look different from previous Pokémon treats I have made. We both ended up happy with the results!
I had fondant available, so made characters primarily out of fondant colored using food gel. I also used toothpicks to provide extra structure. I prefer to use gumpaste rather than fondant for character work, because it dries harder. I worked with what I had though! Crisco and cornstarch are helpful additional tools when working with either gumpaste or fondant.
My new edible markers were excellent! I enjoyed using them on the dried character forms to add small details.
The cake was well received and delicious too! 😋
