This Minnie Mouse Birthday Cake was made with a 6″ round top tier and an 8″ round bottom tier. Both double layers with Wilton’s buttercream recipe in between. The bottom tier is covered with buttercream and I used white fondant polka dots. The top tier is buttercream. The Minnie Mouse faces are black fondant cut outs using a small round cutter for the head, and the bottom of an icing tip for the ears.
The small bows were made of fondant I let dry for 2 days so they would harden. The large hairbow is fondant I also made 2 days earlier and stuffed with plastic wrap to hold its shape until it was dry. The Minnie ears are gumpaste I molded around lollipop sticks and let them dry for a few days also so they would hold their shape. I pushed the ears into the top of the cake, placed the bow in front.
This is one of my favorite cakes I have done. Loved the end result.
