This is OT, but put your picture in the Avatar section instead of photo. Otherwise it is distorted like it is now. I found that out when I tried to put in my picture of me with my DGS!
Haven't ever tried that one. Ali used a round cake pan to make a drum for his "real birthday" then has a guitar for his birthday party... He will be 2.

My daughter's birthday was right after Nemo came out and she wanted that for her theme. There was nothing for sale yet because it was so new but we had a cute cake. It used the Wilton football cake pan for the body and then you "drew" icing fins onto your cake board. It looked great and was one of the easiest cakes I have made. I will try to find some pictures of it to post- I'm not sure we were digital back then. Nemo is a really cute and easy party theme- you will have a lot of fun!
