Silver Mickey Heads on Wedding Cakes.

[Mommy2KAR420]

Hi guys!
I have a question for everyone. I am trying to design my wedding cake with a hint of Disney involved (as this is where we'll be honeymooning ) and I simply can't figure it out...
What are the little silver mickey heads that you see on so many cakes? They look like punch outs in fondant but I'm just not sure. I'd love to do this on my cake but I need some guidance!
Thanks for your help!!

I believe they are done by stamps, and edible powder. Kinda like a rubber scrap booking stamp and ink. Or a wax seal stamp, actually more like a wax seal stamp as the shape is pronounced.

I think they actually show exactly how they do it on one of the food network specials about Disney weddings. I've seen the episode around on youtube.

It's on a video or in a photo somewhere I had seen it done too, but couldn't remember which lol guess it was YouTube

We had our wedding at Disney last October and I wanted to incorporate disney into our cake without being over the top. We had them place "hidden mickey heads" on the the three tiers. We had them done in silver. I didn't know how I was going to like them but they looked really cute and elegant. It was done free handed because they did a swirl head instead of just a standard mickey head.
