Milee's 5th Birthday

Everything Disney
My daughter had a Disney themed party. After going to Disneyland for her birthday, she knew she wanted a Minnie Mouse cake. This was my take on a Minnie Mouse cake for her. She LOVED it! The bottom cake is a yellow cake with a chocolate buttercream filling. The top cake is a devil's food cake. Both cakes are iced with buttercream frosting. The ears on the top cake are butter cookies covered in rolled buttercream. The only non-edible part of the cake is the bow on the top cake. The top cake is suppose to be minnie mouse ears, like those you purchase at disneyland. The bottom cake has little mickey mouse heads piped on in white.

Mickey Cookies


These are the cookies I made for my daughter's Disney themed birthday party. I made Mickey cookies in red, yellow, black and blue. I put them into cellaphane bags and tied contrasting ribbon around them. They are butter cookies with rolled buttercream icing.

Mini Cupcakes

These are mini cupcakes I made for my daughter's pre-k class to celebrate her birthday. They are a perfect size for little hands. They are confeti flavor with buttercream icing.
