Cooking Know-How

Make sure cakes are completely cooled before frosting. A warm cake can cause the frosting to soften or melt.

Easy Cleanup

Lining the pan with foil makes for easy cleanup and easy removal of the cake from the pan. When lining the pan, allow 3 inches of the foil to extend over each side of pan to use as handles when removing the cake from the pan.

" This was a little tricky, I suggest making a practice one first if you are making it for an event. I found gummy sharks and fish instead of the teddy bears. "
