Atticus is a water baby, his mother said she just can't keep him out of the water! So it was fitting that for his first birthday he would have a cake with a swimmer on it (with water wings of course).
First we fondanted the cake with a thin layer of fondant, then we laid a second layer of fondant which was then cut and peeled back to create the big splash!
Aqua coloured gel was added to make the water and a little swimming model made of sugar was bobbed on the top.
Little splashes and drips of blue gel completed the look for Atticus.
