Yes, I would say roughly the size of a Starring Rolls cupcake. The castle is actually white chocolate. There was a small light inside to make it change color.
 
I have been looking at that cake for one my twins 4th birthday and epcot wanted to charge me over $50 for it yet gf its around 35 :-(
 
At WDW, Disney uses what they refer to as a "traditional" buttercream. I find it to be less Crisco-y than what you'd get from a supermarket bakery but more textured than the Chantilly buttercream used by Aulani and Disneyland (which tastes like straight unsalted butter to me). Can't speak to Disney's whipped cream frosting cuz I can't stand the stuff!


Thanks for that, LurkeyLoo!
 

I am wanting to order a traditional mickey delight cake for my sister's birthday. I only want a 6 inch vanilla/vanilla with no fondant just buttercream. Anyone know if it is possible to do that at the Boardwalk Bakery. I know they do it for weddings but I'm just wondering if they will say it is too small of a cake.
 
I'm pretty sure the Mickey delight cake requires fondant for the mickey head stamp? I could be wrong, but I don't think I've ever seen it done on just buttercream.

Yes Mickey delight requires fondant. You can't stamp the Mickey's on buttercream.

Hi everyone,
I've read through all of over 200 pages and made lots of "saves" of pics.
But I couldn't find the answer to this(of course, I could have missed seeing it also, with all this great info on the thread).

Can I get a cake with the Country Bears as a theme or would that have license issues? Not sure why they would, but I try never to assume.
DH & I will be at the CBR 11/7-12th so we can participate in the F & W 5k on the 9th. Halloween is DH's birthday, but I'm pretty sure he's done with having Halloween cakes over the years. Even though it'll be past his b-day, he has no idea Disney makes custom cakes, so having one belated b-day cake delivered to our room would be a huge surprise. He loves the Country Bears, so I'm hoping I could get a cake with "The Boys" as a theme. I'm thinking at least a 6" so it could accommodate a decent amount of design. Leftovers are fine.
Working off of a poor memory, I think I'll be dealing with the Boardwalk Bakery.........
What's their track record with probably not asked too often designs?
Thanks!:wave2:

For CBR you need to place the order through CBR, not BoardWalk Bakery, even though they're the ones making it. There are no licensing issues with Country Bears because they are a wholly Disney-created property. Unless you are very specific with ideas and pictures, they are probably just going to suggest a screen print of the Country Bears on top of an 8-inch cake (and even if that's OK with you, you might want to help them out by digging up the image you want).
 
Any tips / advice for BoardWalk Inn cake ordering? I'm looking for a cake to get delivered to the room. Wondering if I've left it too late -- need a cake for next week either the 27th or 28th. :eek:


I called their private dining number but the person fielding the questions had to keep putting me on hold for the answers, then eventually just asked me to call back to speak to someone else. :confused3 I'm looking for a small, Halloween-themed birthday cake. Only 3 of us... so it didn't need to be a massive cake (one of which is a 6 year old whose eyes are bigger than her stomach. :rolleyes1 )

Not even sure if this is possible.

It's not too late. A 2-tier minicake might be enough for you, if you can reign in the 6-year-old. :rotfl: There was one posted a few pages back that was done in orange and purple buttercream that might be a good Halloween cake.
 
I have a question my DH left a message to order a cake from GF on 10/16 and he's still waiting for a call back from them... Is this normal? Should he call back? Thanking you in advance :).
 
I think he wants it for 10/30 since we have an ADR at 1900 that evening. Sorry double post :(
 
This thread has been great for getting ideas on cakes. My mom and I are planning a trip down to WDW in December. I wanted to give her a day that is all about her since she's done some much for me over the years. We will be staying at the GF and I got her a Keys to the Kingdom tour and we will be dining at Victoria and Alberts. Does anyone know if cakes can be delivered to Victoria and Alberts for dessert?

Since we've spent so much time at WDW over the years I thought about getting a custom cake to celebrate our memories. I was thinking of using bits and pieces from rides that no longer exist like Mr. Toad and Horizons. Does anyone think this is possible? I worry that if I mention those rides no one is going to know what I'm talking about.

Someone mentioned that the person who usually takes cake orders has been out of the office. I'd call back and speak to someone to confirm the cake.

V&A's is the one place you can't get a pre-made "podium cake," but I don't know if that means they can't serve any cakes there. If you're staying at the GF, why not just have it delivered to your room? Then you don't even have to carry it. :thumbsup2

I didn't even think of that. Our dinner reservations are at 5:00pm and I heard dinner at V&A can be a few hours. Do you think the cake would keep if I had it delivered to our room during our dinner? I want it to be a surprise when she walks through the door. I've never planned anything like this before and I tend to over think things.
 
Oh you can *never* overthink when it comes to Disney! :rotfl: Dinner does last several hours at V&As - you might want to schedule the cake to arrive toward the end of dinner, just so it isn't sitting out too long. Maybe 2 or 2 1/2 hours after your reservation time?

Sounds like 7:00-7:30 might be a good time then. Now I just need to figure out how to get my vague idea across to the right people. If you are having a cake delivered to the room, do they charge the room or can I put it on a separate card? I don't want my mom to have to buy her own cake. :rotfl:
