I need mini birthday cake ideas.?!
My daughter is turning 6!. Whenever I was a child, my family would order a large cake with a tiny cake just for me!. They were always very unique, like a doll in a cake (the cake was the dress), a little teddy bear, and so on!.
I have looked for the tiny cakes and recipes online, but I cannot find anything for just one birthday cake for a little girl!.
Anyone have any good recipes and pictures!? also, how do I make the type of stuff they put on the cakes in Ace of Cakes!?
The only thing I did find was sports stuff!. I need stuff for a little girl!. Fairies, princesses, butterflies, flowers!.!.!. I need stuff like that!.
We will be having an ice cream cake as the large cake, so I do not need recipes for the regular sized cake!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Answers:
You can use a regular cake mix and use only half of the batter!. You can actually make only have the mix but that is a bit hard to get the measurements right and cake mix is cheap!. Use any pan that you have, but a regular 8 or 9 inch round is good!. You can make just a single layer, and decorate it as a flower!. This is really easy!. If you aren't one for making homemade icing you can buy a tub of icing, the fluffy white is great almost like homemade!. Use a pastry brush and brush the crumbs from the cake and frost the cake in a single thin layer use about half the icing!. Take a small amount (about 2 tablespoons) of the remaining icing and color it with a few drops of food coloring this will be the center of your flower!. If you have a pastry bag fill it with the icing and make the center of your flower, if you don't have a pastry bag use the back of a spoon and make a small flower center in the middle of you cake!. Color whatever icing you have left in a petal color, and use it either in a pastry bag or with the back of a spoon to make petals around the center of your cake!. Remember they don;t have to be perfect flowers in nature aren't perfect!. If you want to try your hand at fondant petals yo can buy premade fondant from Wilton at Walmart in the craft section!. It can be very difficult to work with, but sprinkle some powdered sugar on you counter and use it as you would flour to roll out cookies!. You can color fondant just like icing but you have to work a few drops of color into the fondant at a time kneading the fondant to mix it well until you get the color you want!. You can use cookie cutters or hand cut the flower petals and then use icing like glue to get them where you want them!. It sounds difficult but it isn't that bad and if you make a mistake you can always reroll the fondant and start again!.
When you get done creating your flower you can take different lengths of wire that you can hand bend to form little arches and push them into your cake, attach little butterflies or fairies that you can buy at any cake or craft store the the other ends of the wires and you have a really cute little cake that your daughter will love!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Have you thought about cupcakes!? Kids love them, and dressing them up can be rather easy; all of my kids used to love sprinkles, and you can buy cake decorations at places like Party City!.
You could also do a large cake for the adults, and cupcakes for all the kids; you could even decorate each one per the particular child's preferences!.!.!.

I'm not too sure on designs but remember that you can use real flowers to decorate the cake!. Assuming they're clean, arrange the flowers (without stems) around the cake and leave the middle to your imagination!. I know this is little help but it lets you get creative and makes the cake very attractive!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
