Hawaiian volcano island cake

Has it really been this long since I updated??  Well, there’s nothing like a relaxing two week Hawaiian vacation to get the creative juices flowing again.  We hit the ground running with two of my daughters’ birthday parties the week we returned.  Savannah wanted a Hawaiian pool party and this is her cake.

We forewent the dry ice eruption because the vendor closed Fri. evening and her party was Sunday night.  Oh, well.  We still had a sparkler in the shape of a 6 and 6 candles to blow out.

The island is two round cakes carved to hug the volcano, and the volcano is two chocolate chip bundt cakes, carved again to taper at the top.  The lava is actually orange and red vanilla pudding and the accessories are Play Mobil toys.  It’s not cheating!  It’s creative.  : )  Luckily they went through the dishwasher just fine.

And here’s the birthday girl with a fresh orchid lei she made on the cruise.  Happy 6th birthday, Savannah Banana!
