When I was a little girl, my mum used to make my birthday cakes every year. Every year. And one cake I remember in particular is the doll with the big dress. I loved it. And now, I am excited to make and bake my kids birthday cakes each year. Even with their birthday’s two days apart, I am out to make their birthday’s even more special with a special birthday cake.
This year, my challenge was an Elsa cake. Looking back, this was much easier then I thought. So how did I do it?
Check out this fabulous video here.
These girls are just so incredibly funny and creative. However, what I did differently was make the second cake in a round ceramic bowl. Somewhere, somehow, I stumbled across this idea because I knew I would destroy the cake by tying to make it into a dress shape.
Other tips:
1. Use packet cake mix {it just makes the whole experience just a little less stressful}
2. Put some ribbon around the cake joinery if they are a little uneven.
3. Frost with different shades of blue and get creative
4. If your elsa doll is just a little taller then the cake {like I did} prop the cake up on a board and put a skirt, ribbon or other decorative item around the bottom to hide the bowl
5. Have fun
