My mom had a birthday and I wanted to bake her a cake.Her favorite animal is the dolphin so I made this off of a picture I found online.

You will need:
Cake mix, whichever you prefer
A baking pan
310 grams Rice Krispies treats
2 cans white cream cheese frosting
Blue food coloring
Blue tube frosting
An oven
A large platter
Whatever it says on the cake box

Adjust the cake to whatever size you need

Open your Rice Krispies and place them on the platter, then shape them into a dolphin. Remember, dolphins are not tube shaped, they get thinner as they get closer to the tail. Start with the body, including the nose. Add the tail. Squeeze out a tail and the fins. Any extra Rice Krispies you have can be eaten*






* if you want to experiment, you can make the extra Rice Krispies into pillars so your dolphin can jump.

Remove Cake

Bop the cake onto the platter. If it comes out in multiple pieces, it's fine and will add a tossing sea effect.

Attach Dolphin

Open the white frosting and empty half of one into a bowl. Add 1-2 drops of blue food coloring. Take what's left and add 5-7 drops. Mix the food coloring in. The lighter blue is your dolphin, the darker is your sea.

Frost

First, add a layer of the darker blue. Then add a scattered white all around. Don't worry too much about getting a bit on your dolphin, you can ice over it.Cover the dolphin in the light blue. Then use the tube icing to add eyes and a mouth(and a blowhole).

Enjoy!
