Minnie Mouse cake
A mom whose kids are on the same summer league swim team as my kids sent me a facebook message earlier this week saying that she needed a birthday cake for her youngest daughter's third birthday party this weekend. So, I asked her to send me the photo of a cake she said she had found online and loved. I was delighted to see this fun Minnie Mouse theme, and re-create it for them.
This was my very first attempt at MAKING my own fondant, and I have to say, I was really pleased with the results. I used the recipe from Peggy Weaver's Baking Corner. I followed the directions exactly for the first batch that I made, and it made good fondant, but a HUGE mess!! For the second batch, I mixed it in my KitchenAid stand mixer with the dough hook. Much better!
