About this deal

Then lower the ring of the springform pan down over the acetate and connect it to the base. The purpose of the cling film and tape is to make sure the jelly doesn’t leak out of the acetate but you can place your cake in a bowl just in case. The Box Jellyfish is a highly advanced species. Native to the shallow waters of Northern Australia and the Indo-Pacific region, the Box is considered to be one of the most poisonous sea creatures. The pale blue and translucent cubed bell grows 15 10-inch tentacles with roughly 5,000 stinging cells each. The sting is extremely painful and lethal, and any surviving victims will sustain extensive scarring. Its average lifespan is one year. Most are about 10 feet long by 10 feet wide and weigh up to 4.4 pounds. They can move through the water up to 4.6 miles ( four knots) per hour. Pink Comb Jelly Moon Jellyfish: These are the most common jellyfish that are found in the UK. They are typically the size of a plate and have four distinctive circles that you can see through their bell. Bioflourescent jellyfish: Getty Images UK. Close-up of purple jellyfish: Bruce H. Obison.

Where it is Found: Portuguese man o' wars are a warm-water species. They may be found in tropical and subtropical waters in the Atlantic, Pacific, and Indian Oceans and the Caribbean and Sargasso Seas. Occasionally during stormy weather, they are washed into cooler areas.

Jellyfish use their tentacles to sting their prey before they gobble it up. Their mouths are located in the centre of their bodies. Did you know? The box jellyfish is the most venomous marine animal in the world. Its deadly tentacles can grow up to 10 feet long. The ocean is home to many species of gelatinous animals, from sea jellies to comb jellies, as well as some tunicates, gastropods, and worms, which can all have translucent bodies similar to sea jellies.

Mix the frosting on the lowest speed with a paddle attachment once it’s made to push out any excess air. Make sure the cake is in the middle of the pan, with at least 1/2 a cm of a 1/4 of an inch all the way around if you want the entire sides of the cake to be jelly. I’ll show you the alternative next. Jellyfish eat a range of different things, depending on their size and depending on the location of the jellyfish’s habitat. Small jellyfish eat things like plankton, small fish and larvae. Larger jellyfish eat larger sea creatures like lobsters, shrimps and crabs. They even sometimes feed on other types of jellyfish! Finally, we’re going to create the jelly ocean!Cut a piece of acetate so it’s long enough to wrap around your cake, and at least as high as you want the cake to be.

Remove the cake from the fridge and carefully peel off the acetate sheet. Cover the cake portion in a second, thin layer of buttercream and avoid the jello section. Sea jellies are members of the phylum Cnidaria (pronounced nigh-DARE-ee-uh). Within this phylum is the class Scyphozoa, which includes the most familiar types of sea jellies, with bell-shaped bodies and tentacles or oral arms. This includes moon jellies, purple-striped jellies, Pacific sea nettles, and many other species. Other classes of sea jellies in the phylum include: I also like to stir it by hand with a rubber spatula once it’s fully made. This makes the frosting silky smooth and easier to smooth onto your cake. Human activity also plays a large role in contributing to the overpopulation of jellyfish. When we deposit large amounts of waste from human settlements and farms into the ocean, a process called eutrophication happens. Eutrophication is the process by which a body of water becomes overly enriched with minerals and nutrients which induce excessive growth of algae and phytoplankton. The water conditions allow jellyfish to thrive and feed off the plankton, which is how they are able to survive. As this process is repeated over time, the jellyfish population has grown and grown.

Unflavored Gelatin– This recipe uses a TON of gelatin. I recommend buying a tub like this! Do not swap in flavored Jello for the unflavored gelatin in this recipe. I have not tested this recipe with agar agar, and I’m not sure it will set firm enough to make this cake design. Peel the tape off the acetate and unwrap the acetate. If the jelly has set and the acetate was greased with oil, the acetate will peel off easily and the jelly will stay behind, creating a smooth coating all around the cake. If you want to, you can frost the bottom part of the cake all the way up to the edge of the base of the pan so it looks like sand at the bottom of the sea, but you’ll still need to carve the cake smaller than the pan now, so there’s room for that frosting.

Bang your cake pans on the counter before putting it in the oven. This brings any big air bubbles that are trapped in the batter to the surface. Where it is Found: Blue button jellies are a warm water species found in the Atlantic Ocean, Gulf of Mexico and Mediterranean Sea. Take a few layers of whatever flavor cake you like and chill them in the fridge for an hour so they’re cold and film. Place your first cake layer on the base of the springform pan and level the cake with a serrated knife if necessary, so that the next layer of cake will sit flat on top of it.Jellyfish have been around for millions of years, even before dinosaurs lived on the Earth. Pulsing along on our ocean currents, these jelly-like creatures can be found in waters both cold and warm, deep and shallow and along coastlines, too. Some jellyfish are clear, but others are vibrant colours of pink, yellow, blue and purple. They can be bioluminescent, too, which means they produce their own light! Jellyfish eat a range of different things, depending on their size, and depending on the location of the jellyfish’s habitat. Small jellyfish eat things like plankton, small fish, and larvae. Larger jellyfish eat larger sea creatures like lobsters, shrimps, and crabs. They even sometimes feed on other types of jellyfish. They are carnivores, but they do not hunt their prey. Instead, they wait for their food to float nearby and get caught in their tentacles. Making 2 shades will be less work and have the same effect, which is why I recommend doing that in this recipe. Now carve your cakeinto some form of a dome by trimming the top edge off with a serrated knife so that the cake is curved around the top. It can be simple, like this, with just a few cuts to create the dome, or you can be much more elaborate, carving nooks and crannies into the top and sides of your cake.
