My little boy is the biggest fan of Mickey so this was the obvious choice. It was also my first effort at baking but I was delighted at how this Mickey Mouse Birthday Cake worked out.
I basically baked up 3 round sponge cakes.
One for the face, and 2 for the ears. For the ears I used a small bowl to cut round. I split all cakes in half and filled them with jam and butter icing. I then covered all the cakes with butter icing , so that I could stick the ready roll icing.
I had thought I would use a template to cut out his features but found doing it free hand was easier. You might prefer to use a template.
I will warn you it took me a whole day to make this cake, perhaps that was just my being an amateur. But give yourself lots of time.
