Also I have some exciting news to share. Since many of you know by now how passionate I am about baking and cake designing/decorating. I have decided to take my hobby to the next level. I have started  my very own home based business " Sweet Tooth " which specializes in custom cakes and cup cakes. Also I intend to showcase my cakes and bakes here . Hope to see you there from time to time. Looking forward to all your suggestions and your feedback. Also let me know what you think about the name, Sweet Tooth. I did a lot of brainstorming and finally settled for this name. Since this is a new venture I'm very excited and at the same time let me tell you  I'm extremely nervous about it too. I thought it was high time I got myself out of my comfort zone and took some risks. So lets see how it all plays out...I would need all the love and support.  I have been fortunate to have some very encouraging and supportive readers who have now become my friends. These roses are for all of you who have stood by me..and you all know who you are !!!. Till you hear from me again..Enjoy !!!

Princess Cake

 Vanilla cake with Buttercream icing.  

Begin by baking two 9" cakes and one dome shaped cake. They are cooled for an hour and then the center of each cake is cut out. This will make it easy to insert the Barbie doll and  the cakes will form the Barbie's elegant dress. Then apply the pink icing in between the layers and then around it. Let it be in the refrigerator for about an hour before you can pipe the icing and make the dress. A real barbie doll is then wrapped with plastic and inserted in the center of the cakes. Soon you are ready to dress up your Princess doll. You can use your imagination and and make the dress of your choice using different decorative icing tips.

Voila , your Princess Cake is ready to Party !!!

This Princess cake was baked for a friend's daughter's 5th Birthday. I'm gald I could help. It was worth the time and effort when I saw the look on her face and the joy it brought her...That was priceless!!!

Must say so I was a little emotional when it was the cake cutting time..LOL.Well got a bit attached to my Princess as this was my first attempt at making this cake.
