Well, at least when it comes to cakes. We may not be in Disney, but I’m sure the bride-to-be sure wishes she was. A self-proclaimed fanatic of all things Disney — her wedding dress is actually from a place called Cinderella Bridal — it seemed fitting that her bridal shower cake would be drawn from the same magical world. And who better to represent Disney than the classic Minnie Mouse?!

This was a chocolate cake filled with whipped banana cream and fresh bananas. The head and ears were formed out of rice krispie treats and then covered with molding chocolate. This was my first time working with molding chocolate, which was pretty cool..and tasty! It’s easy to work with since its very pliable (perhaps a little too pliable, as the warmth from my fingers would easily misshape the figure, so it was delicate to work with). But a good alternative to molding fondant, especially since it tastes 20x better!

I love it!
