My friend Tesla’s little boy Grant is turning 1 and she was having a zoo animal themed birthday party for him so I asked her if Courtney and I could make a cake for him and she said yes.  We actually ended up making 2 because we wanted to practice making zoo animals so here is cake #1 with a hippo.  The cake is a 6″ round Triple Chocolate Bliss cake (already on blog) with Vanilla Buttercream Frosting and then the chocolate fondant from Funfinity.  Cort sculpted the hippo out of fondant and did a fantastic job!  He looks awesome!  I love his little party hat!  Happy 1st Birthday Grant!
