Today, I am looking back to my Sweet Girl’s 1st birthday. Being the Disney lover that I am, I used a Minnie Mouse theme, although without Minnie’s face…simply the silhouette for the decorations and cake.
The cake above is 3 tiers of 8, 10 and 12″ rounds. I love my Wilton Round Cake Pans! They give nice tall layers even after being leveled. I always make a lot of cake because we have a large family and any leftovers go in the freezer.
The Minnie head is cake baked in my smallest metal bowl! (To see another bowl cake, check out the Ladybug Birthday.) I cut slits in the inverted cake for the ears and using toothpicks, secured hard chocolate chip cookies to the cake dome. Then, I covered the entire thing in chocolate. It was yummy!
