Princess Ballroom Cake
This was my daughter's 3rd birthday cake - and I tried to put everything on it that she asked for. The main thing she wanted was all of her favorite princesses, dancing with their princes. I looked everywhere for little figurines, but Disney doesn't make hardly anything with their princes, unless it is their ken doll versions - but that was too big (and too expensive!) to do for a cake. I ended up making all of the princesses and princes out of polymer clay, which so far have broken once or twice from play but are easily mended with some gorilla glue.
This was a chocolate cake, covered in a peanut butter chocolate buttercream frosting, topped with silver dragees, a banner, and the princes and princesses waltzing around at the party.
In my searching for pictures to reference while making the little figurines, I discovered that "The Beast" is actually named Adam - and Snow White's prince is actually named Christopher.
There's a little trivia for you!
The birthday girl approved.
Delicious.
Figurines on the cake:
Snow White & Christopher
Ariel & Eric
Rapunzel & Flynn Rider aka Eugene Fitzherbert
Cinderella & Prince Charming
Belle & Adam aka The Beast
Aurora aka Briar Rose & Prince Philip
