Elsie Too Nov 2021 2:25pm, 22 Nov 2021 4,525 posts	0 Elsie Too A standard round cake with a paddleboard and person on top made from icing or marzipan? If you do want the cake to be paddleboard shaped then I think I would go for load tin and cut to shape it.

Elsie Too Nov 2021 3:29pm, 22 Nov 2021 4,526 posts	0 Elsie Too When I get a vague idea for a cake I just google it and look at all the images and then refine my idea based on everyone else's ideas!

Little Miss Happy Nov 2021 6:12pm, 22 Nov 2021 5,251 posts	0 Little Miss Happy Swiss roll tin the cut out two identical shapes and fill with buttercream - ganache or fondant over it all, figure on top?
LindsD Nov 2021 6:19pm, 22 Nov 2021 51,024 posts	0 LindsD That might work.
Little Miss Happy Nov 2021 7:00pm, 22 Nov 2021 5,253 posts	0 Little Miss Happy I think the theory is sound. Depending on how big you want it you could do a traybake rather than Swiss roll tin?
LindsD Nov 2021 7:15pm, 22 Nov 2021 51,027 posts	0 LindsD I think I only have a traybake tin
