I think I may have bitten off more than I could chew when I took on this cake order. My friend asked me to make a pink & girly cake after seeing my Two-Tier creation and I jumped at the chance! I suggested a Fairy Mushroom, Castle or Princess Cake. The Princess won.
I've never made such a thing before but have seen a few on the internet. Had no idea how I was going to 'dress' the doll so this was all off the cuff. There are imperfections but by and large I'm glad I completed it. It did take a staggering 4 hours to decorate!
I hope my friend is happy with the cake for her daughter!
As for me, well, I'm absolutely shattered so I bid you all goodnight!
Looks sweet and nice.
ReplyDeleteI'm thinking of a similiar cake for my girl too for her birthday this year.
Wow, you've done a great job! The ruffles are a great touch, and did you seriously pipe that lettering? Its perfect!
ReplyDeletelol Sarah! There is an Alphabet Cutter for that job! But getting the fiddly little letters can be a pain!
ReplyDeleteWendy, I'm sure she will love the cake - would love to see what 'dress' your Barbie wears! ;0)
Lynne...what a beautiful barbie doll cake..well done and btw I've tag u in an Easter Game @ 5 Recipes To Celebrate Easter!! Pls come & join in the party :)

Wow, wow, wow! Brilliant first time effort. Very well done. Yes, cakes take up so much time, I'm often up half the night when I do my cakes. But I need to work at night so I can take over the whole kitchen and not worry about little hands poking and prodding the fondant :) Great job.
ReplyDeleteso pretty.... well done..
ReplyDeleteHi, the princess looks lovely!

Thankyou Olivia!
Thankyou YummyLittleCooks!
wow this is so awesome! i am down in the creative side in baking cakes. im so bad at cakes lol
ReplyDeleteyou have done such a great job with such detail! so much effort and time. i dont know why you are shattered? :P.
Thanks Ann! I think starting to decorate the cake at 11:30pm doesn't help! Then when I wanted to take pictures I had to unload the videos off camera!!! Hubbs happily instructing me how to do when all I wanted to do was get in the kitchen & start decorating! Grrrrr!
