Procedure:
1. Melt jolly rancher candies individually, or in piles of two candies in a 325F oven, for 8-10 minutes. They will make small "puddles" once they have melted. Set aside, and allow to cool completely.
2. Stack and cover in white buttercream, two of the three 8" cakes.
3. Cut the third round in half. Then, cut the half piece again, and remove a 1/3 of it. With the 1/3 piece, cut an inch or two off of the top of it. The tiny piece that was cut off the top of the 1/3 piece is the only piece of cake that I did not use for this cake. Discard if desired.
4. Stack the half piece on top of the previous iced cake, lining the round part up to the round part below it. Take the 2/3 piece, and place it on top of the 1/2 piece. Place the 1/3 piece in front of everything. Cover it all in white buttercream. This is the iceberg section of the cake.
5. Measure the height of the iceberg's front, and cut the clear rock candy pieces to fit that size. Line the candy sticks up along the front of the iceberg. Place full candy sticks along the top, rear edge of the iceberg.
6. Place the cooled pieces of melted blue candy on the top of the cake, and this will be the ocean.
7. Along the front of the cake, fit the blue rock candy sticks to height and place them around the entire cake.
8. On the top of the iceberg, add snow flakes, sparkling clear sugar, and extra chunks of rock candy.
9. Using a small amount of white icing attach some snow flakes to the front of the rock candies.
10. Place penguins on top of the iceberg and serve cake when desired.
11. You can store this cake in the fridge for 2-3 days.
