Homemade Barbie and Purse Cake

I made this Barbie cake for my 11 year old. I liked both the idea of a purse and a Barbie. So I did both.

The base of the cake are two 9'13 cakes put together. After the cakes were cooled I placed them in the freezer till hard. Then I made white frosting in the texture of playdough. I rolled it out to fit the top of the two cakes. Then froze the cake.

For the Barbie I used 3 different sized round cake pans and then placed them biggest to smallest. I froze those cakes till hard. I then frosted the layers so that it was forming a dress shape. This frosting was more soft. Then I froze it. I then rolled out yellow playdough and formed it around the frozen dress. I placed the top part of Barbie in and formed the dress and cut out a frosting using chilled frosting that could be cut and shaped.

With the purse I used a 9in round cake pan. After cake was baked and cooled I cut it in half, frosted the two together with more soft frosting then froze. Then rolled out chilled frosting and covered the purse. I use different sized round lids for the circles on the cake.
