A cake dream come true for a birthday girl who's turned six last April 28, 2012. A Tinker Bell Cake for my daughter Ellyza. First try for a Doll Cake, Chocolate Cake flavor with Butter Cream Icing.
Let me share you how to do this:
Let me share you how to do this:
These are the things needed.... a three chocolate flavor mini cake around 3 or 4 inches in size with a hole in the center and a buttercream icing (sorry not in the picture) and a barbie doll (Ellyza's doll) with a butterfly wing to look like a tinker bell.
Cover with a foil or clear wrap the half body of a barbie doll to protect from cake crumbs and icing and no hassle to clean after using it.
Layer the cake with Butter Cream filling and frost it in a very thin layer of icing and called that "Crumb Coat", it's okay if you can see a dark part of a chocolate cake because it cover up with the dress of a doll.
Insert the Barbie doll to the center of the cake, in my case my cake is short for the waist line of a doll, I add too much frosting and I curve to make it skirt like, because my cake is flat.
Start layer the dress of a doll, I use large leaf tip for the dress of Tinker Bell and I started at the bottom to estimate how long to make it leaf. Take note, we usually use the tip leaf is pointed out, this time start half inch of the leaf where you started then going down.
Continue doing it till reach the waist line of the doll.
Start for the upper dress, start also to the bottom same as the skirt and follow the shape of the breast to make it a tube top.
In a hair dress, style and design any what you want, for me I used large drop flower tip with color yellow butter cream icing and top it with also a medium drop flower tip in color green. I fix first the hair with scotch tape to make it neat and place for the icing.
