Wow. I totally did not expect what you made. I am so impressed - congrats - it looks great! I too would order one if you lived by me. I love to bake, but I don't have enough patience for something like that!

OMG that's amazing!! Good job on doing this yourself, I definitely wouldn't have even attempted to try fondant. I expected to see a single layer cake shaped like Minnie's head, not that it would be bad, I would have been impressed with that toob. This really is beautiful!

This is budget related because I didn't break down and pay someone to do this cake we found online! My sister and I made it tonight, took a long time, but I love it! It's for my DD's 2nd bday party tomorrow

OMG!!! That is the cutest cake ever!! I don't think I would want anyone to cut into it.

Love the cake, You are quite artistic, how did you make the icing like that? Any special instructions?? We are heading to Disney for my DD 9th birthday in Sept but before we leave we are having a party with my family and DH who isn't able to come....this cake would be a great build up towards our trip!

I went to a local mold shop and just made them myself using the Wilton melting chocolates from Michael's. They are super easy! I tried to do different colors for eyes, etc. but I am so ridiculously messy at that, so I just did the one color.
