This is a 10-inch round vanilla-butter cake, frosted with orange buttercream and decorated with fondant splatters and fondant darts. The number, target, and Nerf logo are also made from fondant. The bright orange color was created by mixing 1 ounce of Wilton orange icing color into a large batch of buttercream (2 cups butter, 2 cups shortening, 4 lbs powdered sugar, 4 tsp vanilla, 1/2 cup milk). I then tweaked the color to make it brighter and more bold by adding a bit of Wilton Rose icing color (bright pink) and Lemon Yellow until I was satisfied.
