Beatrice’s birthday in Feb.
Last year she wanted princess cake for this year. Couple of days before her birthday, she wanted minions. OMG, when can I make that? I would be back from Singapore on Saturday morning and I would have to bake on the Sunday. Decorate it on Monday and get it delivered on Tuesday.
Plan..planning..planned…and finally executed.
4 layers of 6″ round cakes – strawberry, orange, and mango flavored. The round top is made using the Wilton round cake pan. Layered with cream, stacked them and covered with fondant. Had a very good helper to create the eyes.
While waiting for fondant to take its shape, I created the 2 mini minions. Haha look at the eyes. Looked a bit pissed.
On the same day, I created the cookies. Baked and stores in a tight container as I need the cookies to be “less oily”. Leave them for a day. The next day, cover the cookies with fondant and decorate as you wish. I decorated with many different facial expressions.
At the end, we managed to get it done and delivered. The look on Bea’s face is priceless.
Glad to make your day Cici Bea.
Love you always.
PS: next year, let’s just go out to celebrate your birthday.
So cute! My son saw your pictures and asked me to make the same cake for his birthday! 🙂
Hello there, they are indeed a fun cake to make. Just wanna warn ya that you may encounter the same incident as I did…the brother of the birthday girl, Ben, 2 years old, with his teary eyed expression, screamed:”No, No” when we wanted to cut the cake. He hid the plastic knife as well. Anyways, once he was back to his room, we cut it, oh yeah, and it tasted good! Have fun if you decide to make it
and do let me know how it turns out. Cheers.
Oh my goodness! I never saw this reply until now. Lol, cute story. 🙂 I did make a Minion dessert table and the cakes were sooo hard for me! Anyway, here is the link if you want to check them out: http://gercakes.wordpress.com/2013/05/22/minions-party-part-1/
