I started with 2 10 inch cakes, 2 8 inch cakes and 1 small stainless steel bowl cake. I used a WASC cake recipe I found online for all the cakes. I used white almond sour cream (WASC) because it is sturdy, it stacks well, and it tastes great. I also had 4.5 lbs of fondant and some buttercream frosting. Because I had such thick cakes I cut each cake in half and used three halves to make each tier.
I then frosted between the layers and stacked the cake and followed that by frosting the whole cake. Next I colored some of the fandant pink and rolled It out.
I carefully placed the rolled fandant over the cake and slowly fit the fandant to the cake.
Then I colored and rolled a strip of fondant for a ribbon and used a tool to add a stitching pattern to the edges.
Next I cut out dots and stuck them on the cake using fondant glue randomly placing them. Then I reapeated the first few steps on the 8 inch cakes but adding a white ribbon. I rolled out some black fondant and cut out small circles and big circles and pressed the small circles on the big circles to make the Minnie mouses. I also cut out small pink rectangles and squeezed the middle to make bows.
I equally spaced the Minnie mouses adding bows to each. Then I cut a large rectangle of fondant and angled the corners. Then I folded the fondant over some balled up seran wrap and squished the middle in.
Then I let the bow sit so it can firm up. I took some pink fondant and made small dots and put them on the bow
For the Minnie mouse hat I started with the bowl cake and buttercreamed it. Then I covered it with black fondant.
I then took two Oreos and covered them in black fondant. I used tooth pics to secure them to the bowl cake. After that I made fondant letters to spell her name. And placed them on the hat cake
Then I stacked all the tiers and attached the bow with fondant glue. I inserted wooden dowels into the bottom tier to stabilize the cake and make sure it didn't collapse. For a finishing touch I added edible pearls around the Minnie Mouse hat. Everything was going great when this happend.
