How To: Make and decorate a making her entrance doll cake

Wilton Cake Decorating demonstrates how to make and decorate a Making Her Entrance Doll Cake.

To make the cream cheese pound cake, cream together some cream cheese, butter and sugar, then add eggs and vanilla. In another bowl mix together the flour, baking powder and salt. Add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients alternately with the milk, and blend well.

The cake is baked in a specially shaped pan for about an hour. When it’s done, level off the top, turn it upside down on a plate and cover it with a thin layer of icing.

The dress is made from fondant that has been rolled out in a circle. This piece is placed over the cake to form the skirt, pressed down and molded into shape. Brush it with a little water and decorate with sugar sprinkles and stars. On the top add a purchased bodice, which you can decorate for the occasion.

The complete instructions and recipe can be found on the website.
