1. Fondant Rainbow

I am no cake decorator so last year I kept it simple and made this My Little Pony cake. The flowers were made using a fondant flower cutter, the ponies all store bought and the rainbow made from fondant. To make the rainbow roll out each fondant color into a long snake and place around a glass to get the bend. Between each color rub on some water which will help the fondant colors stick to each other. The cloud was made by rolling up fondant into balls and placing together before draping over a thinly rolled out piece of fondant and gently pressing down to create a cloud shape.

2. Nerdy Nummies

Our kids could sit and watch Rosanna Pansino and her videos non-stops if they were allowed so, of course, we had to feature her awesome My Little Pony Cake. Covered in fondant and adorable fondant decorations this is one cake that will impress. Head over to Rosanna Pansino to watch the video on how it was made.

3. Fondant Hearts

These fondant hearts add an interesting base design which works really well for a My Little Pony Cake. The rainbow is also lovely in this placement making the pony the feature of the cake. Read the tutorial here.
