Here's the latest cake creation from Kt's kitchen. My niece had a birthday on March 30th, and asked me to make her a cake. Her instructions were very specific: a white cake, with white frosting, and kind-of like a barbie. That's what I had to go by....and this is what I came up with! I did a
funfetti cake, with
strawberry icing filling,
white frosting, and
vanilla-flavored fondant. I found the Barbie at the 99 cents store, and made her dress from the fondant. After covering the cake and making the top of dress, I painted the
gold accents around dress trim...and bow around waist along with the crown. I had my first try with luster/pearl dust-you can't see it in the pictures, but there's a
silver sparkle shimmer in the fondant...and it gives it a shiny appearance too. Overall....I thought-"Not too bad for my first try at a doll cake," although there are a few things I would do differently next time around. Hailey said that she wants a
Cinderella cake for her birthday-so I may just have another shot to improve on the doll cake. I had a lot of fun, and my niece loved it.

That looks so good, Katie! You're awesome. I'm glad you posted this... Grace wants one for her 3rd birthday, and I wasn't sure what to do. Thanks!
I think that's amazing! You did a fantastic job. So, where are the barbie's legs? IMPRESSIVE KT!
I'm impressed!
Hey! It was so good to see you and your family the other day! I love your cakes and I want to start doing stuff like that so you should come give me lessons...or I just might have to come there :)
You have an amazing talent! Great job!!!
Too cute! So sad that I had to miss the party and not see your great creation in person!
You are amazing. I am not even joking. You are like a pro! Good job. I wish you lived here and could have done a spiderman cake for Tanner's bday!
