With shimmering mermaid tails, a bold two-toned drip, and swirls of dreamy buttercream, it’s designed to feel magical while also being delicious.

What cake should I get for a mermaid party?
The mermaid tail cake is designed with dreamy swirls of buttercream, a two-toned drip, and shimmering mermaid tails that bring under-the-sea magic to life. It’s the kind of centrepiece that captures children’s imaginations while also serving as a fun and delicious party treat.
How to make a mermaid cake?
- Bake two sponge cakes in round tins, then stack them with buttercream filling.
- Cover the cake in pastel-coloured buttercream, blending shades like aqua, pink, and lilac for an ocean effect.
- Melt white chocolate and tint it before dripping it over the edges.
- Use silicone moulds to make fondant or chocolate mermaid tails, seashells, and starfish, then place them on top.
- Finish with edible glitter or pearl sprinkles for a shimmering under-the-sea look.
While fun, decorating can be time-consuming and tricky to perfect at home. The Mermaid Tail Drip Cake is already crafted with buttercream swirls, a two-toned drip, and shimmering mermaid tails, giving you a polished centrepiece that’s party-ready without the stress.
How do I make a drip on a cake?
Creating a smooth drip means heating chocolate ganache to just the right consistency and applying it carefully with a spoon or piping bag. Too warm and it will run, too cool and it clumps. Choosing Mermaid Tail Drip Cake saves time and ensures a flawless drip finish that’s already styled and party-ready.
