Finding Nemo Birthday Cake

This cake was made for my twins Michael and Matthew's 2nd birthday party. They were really into Finding Nemo, so I wanted their cake to be extra special.

I searched the Internet for a Finding Nemo cake pan, but could not locate one so I used a football shaped pan for the body and I baked a regular rectangle cake and cut out the fins and attached them to the cake with icing and decorated to look like or similar to Nemo. All done with regular boxed cake mix and homemade buttercream frosting tinted accordingly.

Editor's Note: That's a great cake, Maudrey. Thanks for sharing the innovative tip about using different types of cake pans to create the shape of Nemo.
