Mickey Mouse head cake + Poly cake question

[SandraVB79]

Did anyone already order this? (I guess so, because I have seen pictures of it)

How big is it/ how many people does it serve?
What kind of cake is it? Does it have a filling/ frosting/...?
Did you like the taste of it? Not too dry or too whatever?

I would like to order a cake for our first "real night" at WDW (not arrival night). We will be at the Spirit of Aloha dinner show. The choice I have made in my head is
- or the Mickey head cake
- or a custom cake. I had thought about some chicalte cake (what exactly is the difference between chocolate cake and devil's food cake?) with the custard and raspberries or strawberries filling and whipped cream frosting/ icing/ whatever it is called, and some Hawaii-theme to it. (I will have to figure out all the right descriptions, in order to not make it too complicated when I call them)

Do you also think the Poly will box my cake and allow me to pick the leftover up later on in the evening??

Thanks for the answers!

NOBODY has already ordered the Mickey head cake????

Or cake at the Poly?????

OK, I can't believe nobody ordered that Mickey cake.
I'll just keep bumping this thread up until I get my answer... I guess

Perhaps you should try the Official Birthday/Anniversary Cake thread:

I have tried that thread.
I didn't get an answer there, posts get burried in cake-pictures.
That's why I tried a separate thread.

I have never had the Mickey head cake, but I researched it on the cake thread for next week's trip. (Decided to wait and get it next year for DS's birthday)

There doesn't seem to be a filling and your choices are vanilla or chocolate cake. The only dry one I have heard about was a chocolate one from the GF. It has been reported to feed 6-8 people comfortably. The GF version uses frosting and the other verisons are chocolate ganache with a white chocolate Mickey face.

HTH!
