Mickey Mouse in the House

Hi Everyone,
Yes I know it has been sometime since I had a creation to share, you all know how life can take over and ones hobbies have to take the back burner.

Over the last few months I have managed a child free holiday thanks to my wonderful Husband for manning the home fires. I am a very Lucky lady.

Last week I was asked to create my first paid cake creation, for one very excited two year old boy.
The only instructions were Mickey Mouse please! so my mind went into over drive and off to the cakestuff website I went to purchase what I need to make Mickey come alive.

I got a wee bit carried away, the cake became a lot bigger that first planned oh but I did enjoy making it.

I started with the face and created the cake around this, I would love to show you photos of each step of this cake but Master One was sick at the time of this creation so taking happy snaps along the way did not happen.

The cake itself was three layers two of chocolate and one of red coloured butter cake. The icing was a white chocolate and coconut buttercream.

So here is the finished product Mickey Mouse is in the house!



I have learnt a great deal from this cake creation and I am loving seeing my visions come to life.

I want to thank Jo and family for letting me be part of Daniel's 2nd birthday celebrations.
