MARIE ANTOINETTE DOLL CAKE

Steps:

• Find and buy a Barbie Doll with long curly hair. I am using Barbie Fashionista Doll #70.
• Turn the doll upside down.
• Place a ball of cling wrap into the middle of the dolls hair. Surround the ball with hair and tie it together with a rubber band.
• Paint the Barbie's hair with a mixer of white food coloring and hairspray.
• Once the hairspray has hardened, cut away the excess hair.
• Bake 2 boxes of cake mix in a Wilton doll cake pan.
• Remove the cakes from the pan and slice the cake into three equal layers.
• Stack the cakes with buttercream between each layer.
• Crumb coat the entire cake and place into the fridge for 30 minutes.

• Add a smaller trapezoid of fondant on top of the 6-inch one and add fabric texture.
• Wrap the back and the sides of the cake with a large panel of baby blue fondant.
• Cut away the excess blue fondant and leave the trapezoid panels exposed.
• Use a fondant roller to add large fabric lines to the blue panels.
• Roll out blue fondant and cut out the penguin pattern shape.
• Fold the pattern over at a diagonal to create the penguin fold.
