We are going with our best friends and their daughter is celebrating her birthday while we are there. We are doing a princess dinner at ariels grotto for her on that day and they said they don't do cakes. thought about having disney dining make one and have a little party in the room.
has anyone had one made before?
thanks

Yes they do do cakes there. I call the DLH and they connected me to Dinning something. I told them that I needed the top of the wedding cake made for our ann. They directed me to a web page and I picked out what we wanted. It was beautiful. Every year for our ann we have the top of a cake made for us.

We had my daughter's birthday at Storyteller's Cafe at Grand California Hotel and they had the cake there ready for us. It was a very nice cake. Poor girl didn't want anybody to touch it. She was devastated when we cut it. I also went throgh Disney Dining.

We are going next February and it is right after my daughter's 16th birthday. I know dh wants to throw her a big sweet 16 but frankly I am not in the mood to deal with a bunch of rowdy teenagers so I suggested we celebrate on the trip. We are going to San Diego and DL for a week. What would you guys suggest for a "teen". I think the happiest birthdays is way too young as we did that for my 7 year old this past December.

Any ideas on what restaurants would be the most fun and that I could order a cake for?

We just celebrated DD's 18th at DLR last week. Lunch at Catal included her favorite dessert, creme brulee, which I had pre-ordered and they presented it with a lighted candle. They don't sing there but the presentation was very nice. Dinner at Storyteller's surprised her with a Sorcerer Mickey birthday bucket which included a small cake, Sorcerer Mickey plush with Happy Birthday embroidered on his boot, Sorcerer Mickey Happy Birthday pin and some stickers. A little juvenile but she is a major Sorcerer Mickey fan and has always admired/envied the birthday bucket. The wait staff sang to her with a "Zippity Doo Dah" birthday song. She was a little embarrassed but will always remember her 18th BD

That's cool!

How big was the "small cake"? Was it big enough to share?

Thanks!

Individual sized...it sits at the opening of the bucket. She really preferred the desserts at the buffet over the cake - it was very creamy and had a berry sauce in the middle. It had a cute Mickey frosting.

Mmmmm, sounds good.

***But I promised DH no more cake-tastrophies after a $55 anniversary cake at WDW that didn't turn out like I asked. He's tired of hearing how I ordered buttercream and they gave us ganache, how dry the cake was, how I asked for pink and white flowers (to match our wedding colors) and I got red, and how the stand-up decoration of Cinderella and Prince Charming wasn't worth the money because they could have given us the real Cinderella and Charming wedding topper for an extra $5, and not some "edible image" pasted onto a slab of white chocolate! I was really disappointed with it. ***

Anyways... the CM I talked to when I booked my Goofy's Kitchen told me that she'd send a note for a complimentary cupcake when I ordered a Goofy's Kitchen Birthday Bag.

The Birthday Bucket was $20 and you can choose between the Sorcerer Mickey Bucket or a Princess Bucket! If I find a link I'll add it later...
