If your daughter loves Hannah Montana then making her the best Hannah Montana cake you possibly can for her birthday will make her day. There are lots of different Hannah Montana cake options that you can choose to make your daughter's day really special from a guitar cake, a star cake or cupcakes.<br />
<br />
Hannah Montana is the heroine in a lot of our children's eyes and a cake to pay tribute to a girl who goes to school just like them BUT is also a pop star! Wow that is something really special.<br />
<br />
You can make a Hannah Montana cake from scratch using flour and things, or you can use your time more economically (some say cheating, but......) and use a packet cake mix or even just buy a block cake from your local bakers. Your daughter will be impressed whichever option you choose because you have still decorated it yourself and that's what is going to make her cake extra special.<br />

<h2>
Turning a Slab Cake Into a Hannah Montana Cake - The Easy Way to Impress</h2>
<br />
One of the simplest ways of creating a Hannah Montana cake when you’re not very good in the kitchen is by using a slab/block cake. Ice it and then add a cake topper. It doesn’t get much easier than that and they look fantastic.
<br />
<br />
Here are toppers to choose from:-
<br />

<br />
<br />
If you don’t want to use a topper or you just want to add something special then you can use chocolate. Ice the cake as above and then take some white chocolate pieces, food coloring and some candy molds, like these ones -
<br />
<br />
<div style="font-size: 0; text-align: center;">

<br />
<br />
Melt the white chocolate and add the appropriate food coloring – think of a Hannah Montana color scheme such as pink and purple or turquoise and then pour the chocolate into the appropriate molds and use the chocolate on top of the cake as your own personal toppers.
<br />
<br />
You can create a cake with guitar, music notes and stars or you could use hearts, butterflies and flowers. If you’re handy with a piping bag you can also add some swirls around the cake and it will look perfect.

<br />
<br />
If you don’t want to use chocolate, never fear you can still decorate your Hannah Montana cake yourself with the help of fondant icing. Buy or make some fondant (I’ve only ever brought it myself). If you’re artistic then you can make models of Hannah and her friends or a guitar and/or microphone. Fondant is basically just like playdoh.
<br />
<br />
However, if you’re not up to modeling skills you just need to get hold of some cookie cutters, like these here -
<br />

<br />
<br />
After icing your cake, roll out more fondant and using your cookie cutters cut out the design you want. As far as color goes you can break off pieces of fondant, add food coloring and knead it before rolling out to cut OR you can use a paint brush. Mix food coloring with a little water to give it a watercolor look on your pieces of fondant.

Hannah Montana Cupcakes - The Latest Birthday Cake Craze</h2>
<br />
Last year my daughter didn’t want to take a big cake into her class instead she requested cupcakes and it seems to be quite a trend to make cupcakes and present them as a birthday cake.
<br />
<br />
You can use Hannah Montana baking cups and cupcake toppers or you could just decorate each cupcake with stars, butterflies, hearts etc and arrange them on a cake board in the shape of a guitar.

If you’re looking for a Barbie birthday cake or even Barbie cupcakes then you’re in the right place here so put on your oven mitts and let’s get baking.<br />
<br />
When people think of a Barbie cake the first thing that generally springs to mind is the cake that has a doll in it, but there are actually a few other ways you can decorate a Barbie cake and we’re going to look at all of them.<br />
<br />
Anyone can make a Barbie birthday cake as I show you the easiest ways to decorate a Barbie cake through to harder ways, let’s have a look at some shall we?<br />
<br />
I'll begin with the classic Barbie Doll cake, which by the way can be made with any doll, not just a Barbie doll, now I hadn't seen this type of cake until my daughter attended one of her preschool friends third birthday party and that's when I was told just how easy they were to make.....<br />
<br />
<br />
<h2>
The Barbie Doll Cake</h2>
I’ve included two different videos which show you how to make a ‘traditional’ barbie cake which uses a Barbie doll in the cake and these would work well on a Disney Princess Cake too, you’d just want to use a Disney Princess Barbie doll.
<br />
<br />
The first video is the one I’d recommend if you’re not very confident with decorating cakes, the second one looks fantastic, but is a lot more involved.
<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
The first Barbie cake that I saw was made by the little girl’s grandmother who used to make them for her daughters as well and she had a special cake pan that she used for her Barbie cake which was like the pan in the Wilton doll cake kit –
<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.amazon.com/Wilton-2105-565-Wonder-Mold-Kit/dp/B0000VMHIW?tag=lousblogs-20" rel="nofollow" style="color: inherit; display: inline-block; float: left; margin: 1.5%; text-align: center; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: top; width: 150px;" target="_blank" title="Wilton Wonder Mold Kit"><span class="prthmb" style="-moz-box-sizing: border-box; -webkit-box-sizing: border-box; border-radius: 3px; border: solid 1px #888888; box-sizing: border-box; display: block; height: 150px; margin-bottom: 3px; overflow: hidden; width: 150px;"><img src="https://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41GZfT9udFL.jpg" height="500" style="border: 0; height: 100%; max-width: none; width: auto;" width="462"></span><span class="prnme" style="color: black; display: block; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.1; margin: 3px 0;">Wilton Wonder Mold Kit</span><img class="prbtn" src="https://easyproductdisplays.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/29.png" style="height: auto; max-width: 100%;"></a><br />
The grandmother used a whole doll in her cake though as opposed to the doll pick that comes with this kit.<br />
Now if you’ve watched the videos you’ll know that you don’t actually need a special doll cake pan to make a Barbie cake, but if you do get the Wilton kit it does come with full instructions.<br />
These doll cakes can be turned into Disney princess cakes as well just by using a Disney Princess Barbie doll.<br />
<div style="clear: both; font-size: 0;">

<h2>
More Barbie Cake Pans</h2>
Now the special doll cake pan that enables you to create a wide skirt look for your cake isn’t the only cake pan that you can use to make yourself a cool Barbie cake.
<br />
<br />
You can also get these following cake pans to help you make a fantastic Barbie cake.

<h2>
More Barbie Birthday Cake Ideas</h2>
Now you don’t have to use a doll in your cake to produce a fun Barbie cake a far easier option would be just to use an edible Barbie cake topper and these look great as well as being really easy to use. Your child will still think it’s amazing and you won’t have to stay up late stressing on decorating the cake you want to use.
<br />
<br />
Now make or buy your base cake and then use either frosting or royal icing to cover the cake before gently laying your chosen Barbie edible cake topper on top of the cake, smoothing it out so that it’s nice and smooth.
<br />
<br />
The one piece of advice I’d give you is to make sure you measure it before getting/making your cake as when I used one for my daughter’s cake I forgot to measure it first which caused a bit of stress and the cake didn’t look as good as it would’ve had I got a slightly bigger sponge!

Barbie Dream House Cake</h2>
<h3>
Use a Barbie Cake Decorating Kit</h3>
If the person you're making a Barbie birthday cake for loves their Barbie dollhouse (or wants one) then maybe you'd like to make them a Barbie Dream House Cake.
<br />
<br />
This does require time, patience and an ability to use a piping bag, but the result is stunning.
<br />
<br />
Step one in making this house is to purchase the decorating kit below -
<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.amazon.com/DecoPac-Barbie-Dream-House-Party/dp/B006TH8ZOG?tag=lousblogs-20" rel="nofollow" style="color: inherit; display: inline-block; float: left; margin: 1.5%; text-align: center; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: top; width: 150px;" target="_blank" title="DecoPac Barbie Dream House Party Deco Set"><span class="prthmb" style="-moz-box-sizing: border-box; -webkit-box-sizing: border-box; border-radius: 3px; border: solid 1px #888888; box-sizing: border-box; display: block; height: 150px; margin-bottom: 3px; overflow: hidden; width: 150px;"><img src="https://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51MbFgif3GL.jpg" height="469" style="border: 0; height: auto; margin: 3.1% 0; max-width: none; width: 100%;" width="500"></span><span class="prnme" style="color: black; display: block; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.1; margin: 3px 0;">DecoPac Barbie Dream House Party Deco Set</span><img class="prbtn" src="https://easyproductdisplays.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/29.png" style="height: auto; max-width: 100%;"></a><br />
The next step is to get a sheet cake which you'll need to ice white. You'll then need to place the Barbie house onto the cake in order to mark out the path and patio.<br />
This kit comes with complete instructions for making the cake up including telling you what tips to use when it comes to adding the details.<br />
<div style="clear: both; font-size: 0;">
<br /></div>
<br />
<br />
The kit itself contains a fold down Barbie house that can be used to play with after the cake is demolished. It also comes with a Barbie and Sequin figurine.
<br />
<br />
Now if you want to check out the instructions before buying the set then here they are - <a href="http://www.decopac.com/resources/merch/15901BARBDHPSimpleINST.pdf">instructions for Barbie Dream House Cake</a> (this is in a pdf format).
<br />
<br />
Personally I might try and decorate it differently for example I would color some fondant green and use that to cover my cake. Next I'd take some shredded coconut and mix it with a drop or two of green food coloring and push this into the fondant which creates the look of grass (very simple yet effective method if you need grass for anything).
<br />
<br />
By keeping it all on one level you wouldn't need to add a patio, but you could take a little bit of fondant and add black food coloring and use this to add a path leading to the door. Alternatively you could use different sweets as cobblestones for a path - which confectionery you choose would depend on where you live and what was available.
<br />
<br />
To add something extra to the cake you could use little plant pots or trees from toy sets, dolls house sets or train sets.
<br />
<br />

<h2>
Barbie Cupcakes - Who Doesn't Love Cupcakes?</h2>
A few years ago now my daughter blindsided me by requesting cupcakes instead of a big cake for her birthday and I must admit cupcakes are a great alternative. There's just something special about having a whole cake to yourself which I think is part of the appeal of cupcakes.
<br />
<br />
However, if you're holding a birthday party what about the candles, the singing and the cutting of the cake? Well there is a way for your daughter to have cupcakes and a 'proper' cake for her birthday thanks to what are called petite cake toppers.
<br />
<br />
Below are a couple of Barbie cake toppers that I've sourced for you - one is in the classic Barbie pink and features the blonde Barbie, the second one is in a different shade of pink and features African American Barbie.
<br />

<br />
When it comes to making the most of these petite cake toppers there are two options (that I can think of that is), one is to use a cake stand or plate of some description and have the petite cake on top with all of the cupcakes underneath. The other idea is to use a <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004WX45HU/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B004WX45HU&linkCode=as2&tag=louscoc-20">fake dummy cake</a> which you can ice. Now add the petite cake on the top of the tiered dummy cake and put the cupcakes on the tiers so that it looks like cupcakes decorating a bigger cake. If you want more detail you could simply add smarties or M&Ms to the sides of the dummy cake to add a polka dot effect before adding the cupcakes.

<h2>
Decorating Your Barbie Cupcakes</h2>
There are lots of ways in which you can decorate you Barbie cupcakes from using Barbie cupcake wrappers and simply white, pink or purple icing on the actual cupcakes to using Barbie edible cupcake toppers or Barbie picks.......so many decisions!
<br />
<br />
Check out some of the Barbie cupcake decorations you can get online and see if they help you to decide which ones you want to use (if you do go with a cupcake topper or pick then I'd be using a pink or pink and white cupcake wrapper to help accent the Barbie theme).

I love the words easy when it comes to cooking and if you’re talking birthday cakes then I especially love the words quick and easy and that’s what these birthday cake recipes are.<br />
<br />
I love spending lots of time decorating birthday cakes for my daughter as I get a lot of fun out of it, but sometimes time is in short supply which is why I’ve compiled some really simple birthday (or everyday) cake ideas together.
<br />
<br />
You can use a brought cake and brought fondant for these cakes or you can make your own so let’s have a look at some cool cake ideas ……..
<br />
<br />

<h3>
Going Dotty Birthday Cake</h3>
<h2>
Easy Polka Dot Cake</h2>
When my daughter had her 11th birthday I made a <a href="http://wizzley.com/one-direction-birthday-cake/">One Direction cake</a> for her to take to school, but that left nothing at home for us to have. I had a sponge cake left over that I was planning on freezing, but instead I thought why not make her a quick cake to share with the family after school.
<br />
<br />
I used -
<br />
<ul>
<li>an un-iced sponge cake</li>
<li>some vanilla frosting (left over from her other cake)</li>
<li>some giant chocolate buttons</li>
<li>a flake bar</li>
</ul>
<br />
With all of these ingredients and very little time I whipped up a cake that impressed hubby, daughter and myself ..... it also tasted good. The only drawback is now I think dd expects two cakes every year!!
<br />
<br />

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Chocolate Button & Flake Cake</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
I basically covered the sponge with vanilla frosting and randomly stuck the chocolate buttons on the side of the cake - you could have stuck them on the top for a truly dotty cake, but as I had a flake bar I decided to use this on top. Flakes are supposed to just crumble, but as you can see there are some 'clumps' of flake in places, but I didn't say it would look perfect!
<br />
<br />
If you wanted to you could use chocolate or strawberry frosting along with white chocolate buttons all over the cake - it really is a very simple idea to use if you're caught short and need a cake quickly!
<br />
<br />
Of course this was made using a brought sponge and frosting, but you can use a home made cake and frosting if you wanted to - I was just trying to produce a cake as painlessly as possible!

This cake is best for a layered birthday cake and will take a little more time than the polka dot cake, but is just as easy. The result, however, is stunning as you can see in the picture.
<br />
<br />
In order to make this cake I again brought all of the ingredients to prove that it really could be made of entirely store brought ingredients and still be a huge hit.
<br />
<br />
<b>Supplies</b>
<br />
<ul>
<li>2 un-iced sponges (my supermarket sells them in a double pack which is handy)</li>
<li>1 tub of vanilla icing</li>
<li>Kit kats</li>
<li>Smarties</li>
<li>Piece of ribbon that’s long enough to be tied around the finished cake</li>
</ul>

Now I've got some photos below which show you each step as we go, so be sure to check them out.
<br />
<br />
First you need to take your first sponge and place it on a plate or cake stand - this is a cake that you don't want to try and lift once you've made it so what ever you're planning on serving it on that's what you need to prepare it on. Worried about making a mess? That's okay I'll give you a little tip ......
<br />
<br />
<blockquote>
Place strips of baking paper or greaseproof paper around your plate or cake stand and place your cake on it. This will protect the surface from icing etc and can be pulled out once the cake is finished</blockquote>
<br />
<br />
Once you've placed the first sponge onto your plate you just need to add frosting to the top and then place your second sponge on top. For this cake you actually don't need to worry about the top being flat which is good.
<br />
<br />
Now you need to add frosting to the top of the second sponge as well as to the sides of the cake. The frosting isn't going to be seen so you don't have to worry about keeping it really smooth, just make sure it covers the whole surface.
<br />
<br />
Now you’ll need to get your Kit Kats (this is the most time consuming part of the cake), you’re basically standing them up and sticking them onto the frosting all the way around so that it looks like the side of a wooden barrel. The number of kit kats you need will depend on the size of your sponge (mine used up about 30 'fingers' I think).
<br />
<br />
The next step is to pour in the M&Ms or Smarties - I used Smarties in this cake because they were on special! You need to make sure that they totally cover the frosting on the top, but how deep you want to make them is totally up to you. We used about 200 grams, but it was very generous!
<br />
<br />
My final touch was to add some ribbon around the outside of the cake, to be honest I'm not sure it really needed that, but I had a nice dotty design of ribbon which I thought would look good!
<br />
<br />
I think this is a great cake and it certainly has the wow factor.
<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
This really is a gorgeous looking cake that will impress your children no end and as you can see it's very, very easy to make. There is one question that does get asked however and that's - how do you cut and serve this cake without making a big mess?
<br />
<br />
After I made it first I did think uh oh, but it actually wasn't too bad! You need to cut between the Kit Kat fingers and use a cake slice to lift each piece out. You will lose a few smarties, but not as many as you'd imagine (and we always have a lot of them on there!), if your kids are anything like the ones I've baked cakes for they'll love to see you lose some anyway and will be hanging around like seagulls at a beach picnic looking for stray ones.
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg9-pG-R-gA2yDiPf4-_-oWgikLZyy6LzJco1Op4XSHWgBTve7W_1HjFzjV4W5JkCzf1zTszc39SwzXHUFRkLr5fixNOTC7riOJKoyXJVpu6VDjyx_UjlA6F9dossK-tVqIzB_sbYzoMldv/s1600/cake-715403_1280.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg9-pG-R-gA2yDiPf4-_-oWgikLZyy6LzJco1Op4XSHWgBTve7W_1HjFzjV4W5JkCzf1zTszc39SwzXHUFRkLr5fixNOTC7riOJKoyXJVpu6VDjyx_UjlA6F9dossK-tVqIzB_sbYzoMldv/s320/cake-715403_1280.jpg" /></a></div>
I came across another variation of the Kit Kat Barrel of Lollies cake recently and seeing the picture it looks very easy to make indeed.
<br />
<br />
Basically follow the directions above from steps 1 through to 4 and then for the fifth step use six Kit Kat fingers to 'divide' the cake and add a large chocolate in the middle (they've used a Ferrero Rocher).
<br />
<br />
Next fill each 'slice' with chocolates of your choice from m&ms through to maltesers. You could even just use Smarties or M&Ms, but use different colored ones in the different 'slices'.
<br />
<br />
It does look really good doesn't it? My daughter is already trying to think of what different types of candy she'd like next time I make her a cake!

Super Easy Star Wars Cake Ideas</h3>
<h2>
Star Wars Cake Decals</h2>
<div>
<br /></div>
The easiest way to create a Star Wars cake is to buy a ready made sponge cake, some frosting and a cake decal. There are certainly some cool cake decals available to buy from the original Star Wars movies right through to the Clone Wars.
<br />
<br />
You can simply frost or ice a sponge and place the decal carefully on top – smooth it down and you have yourself a cool Star Wars cake. Here's one person's version - they've added candles to the top, but I must admit that I prefer it without candles ....
<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
If you’re feeling a little more creative then you can take the cake decal as a starting point and do a few other things to ‘jazz up’ the birthday cake a bit.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
Firstly you could just pipe around the edges of your cake like this person has done -<br />

Secondly you could add designs around the side of the cake and this can be done in a number of different ways including cupcake decals, stencils and cookie cutters – let me go into more detail on these ideas……<br />
<br />
<br />
<h3>
Ideas Using Fondant for Your Star Wars Cake</h3>
<h2>
Fairly Easy Ideas for a Cool Cake</h2>
If you decide to use fondant to cover your cake then you can still use a cake decal on the top of the cake, but you also have a nice smooth finish on the side of your cake that can be nicely decorated using more fondant or cake decals.
<br />
<br />
If you get some cool cupcake decals you simply smooth them onto the side in the same manner that you added the one to the top – this is a really easy way of adding more decorations to the cake without needing any artistic talent at all.
<br />
<br />
Another thing that you could do is to add stars to the side of the cake, after all it is Star Wars and there are stars in space! Simply roll out some spare fondant and use a cookie cutter to cut out stars – you can use a brush to paint a color onto them and then add a little water to the ‘under side’ of the star to help it stick onto the actual cake. Now I’ll admit I’ve never ‘painted’ fondant – I add food coloring to the fondant, knead it and then roll it out before cutting it. Either option will work.
<br />
<br />
When I saw this cool Star Wars cake I thought about using a stencil.

</tbody></table>
<br />
There are two ways of achieving this that I can see. One is by making your own stencil and then using a cool cake sprayer like they have on Ace of Cakes which you probably don’t have in your kitchen so that leads us to the second way…..
<br />
<br />
I would color your fondant first and then roll it out, next lay your homemade stencil on top of the fondant and cut it out. Brush the underside with a little water or a simple syrup and ‘stick’ it onto the side of the cake – how easy is that?
<br />
<br />

<i>When I’ve made stencils for cakes I’ve simply downloaded an image from Google (only do this for personal use as otherwise you’re talking trademark violations), printed it out and then used a craft knife to cut the ‘inside’ of the image out creating a stencil.</i></blockquote>

<h3>
Use Cake Toppers to Transform Your Cake into a Star Wars Cake</h3>
<h2>
Another Easy Way to Create an Amazing Cake</h2>
<br />
<br />
You can simply buy or bake your own cake, add frosting and then stick a cake topper or two on top in order to turn it from a run of the mill birthday cake to an out of this world Star Wars cake.
<br />
<br />
There are a number of different cake toppers available for you to use (I've included some below) and how much actual cake decorating you want to do is completely up to you.
<br />
<br />
Most images that you see of these cakes includes piping around the edge of the cake, but a way around this which you can use whether you frost the cake or cover it with fondant is cabouchons. This edible little balls can be placed around the outside of the cake very easily (although a little time consuming) and give the same 'framed' effect that piping can do.
<br />
<br />
Let's have a look at what Star Wars cake toppers are available for you to use .....
<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.amazon.com/Star-Wars-Topper-Cupcake-Toppers/dp/B00K59DYBS?tag=lousblogs-20" rel="nofollow" style="color: inherit; display: inline-block; float: left; margin: 1.5%; text-align: center; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: top; width: 150px;" target="_blank" title="Star Wars Cake Topper and 24 Cupcake Toppers"><span class="prthmb" style="-moz-box-sizing: border-box; -webkit-box-sizing: border-box; border-radius: 3px; border: solid 1px #888888; box-sizing: border-box; display: block; height: 150px; margin-bottom: 3px; overflow: hidden; width: 150px;"><img src="https://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/511MNR912GL.jpg" height="500" style="border: 0; height: auto; max-width: none; width: 100%;" width="500"></span><span class="prnme" style="color: black; display: block; font: 12px / 1.1 "arial"; margin: 3px 0;">Star Wars Cake Topper and 24 Cupcake Toppers</span><img class="prbtn" src="https://www.easy-product-displays.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/25.png" style="height: auto; max-width: 100%;"></a><br />
This is a cool cake topper that can also be used as a toy long after the birthday cake has been eaten.<br />
<br />
The lightsabers light up as well which is pretty cool, the only problem is that they don't stay lit up which is a shame. One commentator has said that he taped the switch on which worked - but lit up or not this cake topper is bound to be a hit.<br />
<br />
This kit also comes with 24 lightsaber cupcake toppers which are a pretty awesome bonus.<br />
<div style="clear: both; font-size: 0;">
<br /></div>
<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.amazon.com/Star-Wars-Wing-Cake-Topper/dp/B0088X78K6?tag=lousblogs-20" rel="nofollow" style="color: inherit; display: inline-block; float: left; margin: 1.5%; text-align: center; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: top; width: 150px;" target="_blank" title="Star Wars X Wing Cake Topper"><span class="prthmb" style="-moz-box-sizing: border-box; -webkit-box-sizing: border-box; border-radius: 3px; border: solid 1px #888888; box-sizing: border-box; display: block; height: 150px; margin-bottom: 3px; overflow: hidden; width: 150px;"><img src="https://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/31Jhny9Ze5L.jpg" height="300" style="border: 0; height: auto; max-width: none; width: 100%;" width="300"></span><span class="prnme" style="color: black; display: block; font: 12px / 1.1 "arial"; margin: 3px 0;">Star Wars X Wing Cake Topper</span><img class="prbtn" src="https://www.easy-product-displays.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/25.png" style="height: auto; max-width: 100%;"></a><br />
This is a two piece cake topper set featuring both the Death Star and an X-Wing and makes a really cool looking birthday cake.<br />
<br />
The Death Star is really only good as a cake decoration, but the X-Wing can be reused as a toy which is really cool.<br />
<div style="clear: both; font-size: 0;">
<br /></div>
<br />
<br />
Of course you don't have to use actual cake toppers on your cake - there are a number of different Star Wars mini figures which you can buy and pop on top of a cake. If the person loves Lego as well then I'd be looking at buying some Lego Star Wars minifigures and adding them to the cake.
<br />
<br />
<h2>
The Clone Wars Cake Decorating Kit</h2>
<br />
<br />
There are lots of different Star Wars cake decorating kits available which include more than just a cake topper, this one featuring the Clone Wars includes two cake toppers and what's called a pop top decoration.
<br />
<br />
The cake toppers are Anakin Skywalker and General Grievous battling with their light sabers at the ready. The pop top is basically a thin plastic Clone Wars emblem which you put on the cake and it appears to 'pop' out because of the 2D effect.
<br />
<br />
Below you can see two different looks that can be achieved using the same decorating kit.<br />
<a href="http://www.amazon.com/Star-Wars-Clone-Cake-Decorating/dp/B004FO0FPC?tag=lousblogs-20" rel="nofollow" style="color: inherit; display: inline-block; float: left; margin: 1.5%; text-align: center; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: top; width: 150px;" target="_blank" title="Star Wars - The Clone Wars - Cake Decorating Kit"><span class="prthmb" style="-moz-box-sizing: border-box; -webkit-box-sizing: border-box; border-radius: 3px; border: solid 1px #888888; box-sizing: border-box; display: block; height: 150px; margin-bottom: 3px; overflow: hidden; width: 150px;"><img src="https://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/31nhkNyV61L.jpg" height="208" style="border: 0; height: auto; margin: 15.333333333333332% 0; max-width: none; width: 100%;" width="300"></span><span class="prnme" style="color: black; display: block; font: 12px / 1.1 "arial"; margin: 3px 0;">Star Wars - The Clone Wars - Cake Decorating Kit</span><img class="prbtn" src="https://www.easy-product-displays.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/25.png" style="height: auto; max-width: 100%;"></a><br />
<br />
This one uses a plain slab cake that has simply been iced and has had a little piping detail around the outside on both the top and the bottom of the cake - very simple and effective.<br />
<br />
This cake decorating kit also includes four 6" plastic straws which can be used to support the cake if you want to have more than one layer ........ which is what we did with the following cake idea.<br />
<div style="clear: both; font-size: 0;">
<br /></div>
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhRtqhnuTidqp5g6hobnN2p3j7e3nCwSQe55ZFjvhFjXUruPYViX3vBZR3gqWE0kKKHNp9StI5l0gnSlKS8eMWlYeppVCETot7cCZ2hS6rDQ4ZCkHK6ZPA7EJRzHS5zxRoGAeVPErFOwfBb/s1600/clone+wars+birthday+cake.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhRtqhnuTidqp5g6hobnN2p3j7e3nCwSQe55ZFjvhFjXUruPYViX3vBZR3gqWE0kKKHNp9StI5l0gnSlKS8eMWlYeppVCETot7cCZ2hS6rDQ4ZCkHK6ZPA7EJRzHS5zxRoGAeVPErFOwfBb/s320/clone+wars+birthday+cake.jpg" /></a></div>
The steps makes the cake look a lot more interesting, the actual decorating isn't much harder than the cake above it's just the thought of layering a cake that some people find daunting!
<br />
<br />
I love how the same decorating kit can be used in two different ways and create cakes that look so different - there really is no end to what you can come up with just by using your imagination when you purchase these kits.
<br />
<br />
<h3>
More Artistic Ways of Creating a Star Wars Cake</h3>
<h2>
Gum Paste & Icing Techniques</h2>
<br />
<br />
If you're great at modelling then you could make your own edible Star Wars characters to place on top of your cake using gum paste. Personally I don't think I'd be able to make a figurine, but I have seen some amazing characters made by more creative people than myself.
<br />
<br />
If you're good at icing, which is really more about a good artistic eye and a steady hand then anything else, then there is no end to designs you can dream up. Google Star Wars cakes for some inspiration - check out Star Wars images online or in posters and just let 'the force' guide your hands!
<br />
<br />
<h3>
Baking Your Own Star Wars Cake</h3>
<br />
<br />
Of course if you love to bake and you want to make a cake from scratch (you could even use a cake mix, I won't tell) then you can always get your very own Star Wars themed cake tin and there are lots to choose from.
<br />
<br />
Most of my cake pans are either round or rectangular, but I do keep looking at the different shaped ones with baker's envy! I love baking cakes throughout the year, but when it comes to making a birthday cake for someone I 'freak out' about it sinking or being as hard as rock or just plain tasting horrible! This is the reason why I always get a store brought cake and just decorate it.
<br />
<br />
If you're more confident about your baking than me you will love to use these cake tins (and one day I'll turn to them as well ....... in a few years time anyway!)

<br />
<br />
This R2D2 baking pan is going back to the classic, old school Star Wars that is where it all began and who didn't fall in love with R2Ds, C-3PO and Chewbacca? They were the characters that I fell in love with when I saw Star Wars for the very first time (sorry Hans Solo, Princess Leia, Luke Skywalker etc).
<br />
<br />
This is why when I saw this Star Wars baking pan I knew that if I was every going to buy one it would be this one!
<br />
<br />
Made from quality aluminium this cake tin has some great contouring which makes the icing really easy once the cake is made. It comes complete with all of the baking and decorating instructions so you're not left wondering what to do next which is always a bonus.
<br />
<br />
Although the cake pan is made of a light weight aluminium it does allow even baking which is important as you want the cake to be baked evenly and not turn out too dry. Made by Wilton you just know that this cake pan is going to last for years - maybe generations of Star Wars fans to come??
<br />

This Wilton Darth Vader baking tin has to be the most classic of the Star Wars baking pans and until I started looking for actual baking pans a few years ago this was the only one I had come across!<br />
As you'd expect from Wilton they provide instructions and tips for decorating this cake as well as the baking tin itself.<br />

If you're after an old school style of Star Wars cake then you can't go past C-3PO (well you could with R2D2, but you know what I mean!) - this cake tin even provides a space for you to personalize the cake after baking it which is a nice touch.<br />

<br />
I've added this Death Star mold here because it does far more than make awesome ice cubes, it can also be made as a decoration for your cake.
<br />
<br />
This can <i>actually</i> be baked which means you can make a Death Star cake, unfortunately it's more the size of a cupcake that a birthday cake, but that doesn't mean you can't add it as part of your cake - a cakey decoration so to speak. Simply make this Death Star cake and add it on top of a plain (or not so plain) iced slab cake and you'll have an awesome looking cake.
<br />
<br />
Alternatively you could make this Death Star out of chocolate and pop it on top of a cake in place of a cake topper or cake decal - really the different ways you can use this mold is limited only by your imagination.

One of the easiest way to create a fairy cake is to purchase an edible topper like this. Simply ice a store cake and then place the decal on top - an instant fairy birthday cake!
<br />
<br />
This beautiful fairy cake above is nice and bright, but if your child loves the Disney fairies then she might prefer the two different edible cake decals below.

<h2>
Non-Edible Fairy Cake Toppers</h2>
When it comes to non-edible fairy cake toppers there's a whole world of fairies for you to choose from. These are great because you can do some cake decorating of your own and combine it with toppers to produce a cake that will make your little girl's eyes pop out of her head.
<br />
<br />
Toppers can be used for both big birthday cakes as well as cupcakes as you can see below.
<br />
<br />

The above image by <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/americancandy_cupcakes_aust/2973860929/" target="_blank">American Candy Cupcakes</a> is fairly easy to replicate.<br />
<br />
The main cake simply has a pink buttercream frosting - the fairy topper is then placed on the top and you can use candy flower cake decorations and silver cabouchons to decorate the cake around the fairy. Adding a ribbon is something that I always seem to find hard (I don't know why), but to be honest I wouldn't bother I would just leave candy flowers and cabouchons around the side and I'm sure any little girl would be more than happy with the result.<br />
<h2>
Tinkerbell Birthday Cake Toppers</h2>
You could create a Tinkerbell cake in much the same way as the one above by simply icing the cake in your daughter's favorite colored icing and adding edible candy flowers and cabouchons with this Tinkerbell figurine taking pride of place as a cake topper<br />
<br />

This is a gorgeous figurine that does a great job doubling up as a cake topper, gift and play toy for after the party is over and the cake is eaten!<br />

<h2>
Adding Figurines to Your Fairy Birthday Cake</h2>
You don't have to stick to using actual cake toppers to decorate your birthday cake, you can use small figurines if you like. I don't know if you enjoy cake decorating or not, but I actually do - I just have problems making anything with a face like fairies, princesses or animals so I can't make a cake exactly like the one below, but I can make one that will impress my daughter just as much.....
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Fairy Toadstool Birthday Cake</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
This fairy toadstool cake is beautifully made and I can imagine <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/foilman/6891761413/" target="_blank">Foilman's</a> 4 year old would have absolutely loved it.<br />
<br />
Now you can create something similar with fondant and fairy figurines. First get your un-iced cake (I usually buy mine from the supermarket as opposed to making one as I want to spend all my time decorating). I would color some of your fondant green and use that as your 'base' on the cake - it doesn't have to be green as you could turn it into a fairy fantasy land with whatever color you like.<br />
<br />
If you've gone with green and you want to create more texture so that it seems like grass (not absolutely necessary, but it's easy enough to do) simply get some shredded coconut in a bowl and add some green food coloring, mix it around until it's all the same color as the fondant and then sprinkle it over the top - pressing down so that it sticks.<br />
<br />
Now how you want to decorate is entirely up to you - you could make a toadstool like in the image or another idea is to sculpt out a tree trunk. All you need is a little imagination. I read somewhere that fondant is like play-doh for adults and it's true!<br />

<br />
If you've decided to create a toadstool then after you've made it you'll want to add a path and the easiest way to do this is to simply use sprinkles. I also love to add a few candy flower cake decorations as well.<br />
<br />
But what about the fairy? This is where you can use figurines or cake toppers - sometimes it's hard to find a cake topper that isn't of Tinkerbell and as much as we all love Tinker there are lots of other cute fairies in the world like the figurine I've found opposite or below.<br />

To create a cake like this one simply bake it in a heart pan, ice and add a fairy topper, figurine (mold your own fairy topper even) and then add some pieces of wire with hearts cut out of fondant in different colors.<br />
<br />
Your daughter will love this 'celebration of fairies' style of birthday cake. You can even add a couple of sparklers alongside the wire with hearts on to add a little extra wow factor.<br />

Usually log style cakes are baked at Christmas time - Yule Logs - but if you think about it they are also perfect for a fairy cake. Simply bake the cake and if you're used to making Christmas Yule Logs then you could decorate them exactly the same. Next add a fairy topper or figurine to the cake - one sitting would be the best option.<br />

If you just look at this cake and sigh then here's another idea - a tiered birthday cake. It doesn't have to be harder than baking a regular cake and it automatically looks more interesting because it has different layers.<br />
<br />
Once baked add fairy toppers and whatever other decorations you like - candy flowers, candy hearts, cabouchons, sprinkles, edible ladybugs even fruit.<br />
<h2>
Topsy Turvy Birthday Cake</h2>
A topsy turvy cake is something that any little girl will love as it has shades of fantasy and Alice in Wonderland attached to it. Simply use colored frosting and a fairy cake topper and she'll be more than happy.........maybe even add a sparkler for some added pizazz.

<h2>
An Ice Cream Filled Fairy Birthday Cake</h2>
Using these bake and fill cake pans means that you can add whatever you want to the inside and what do most children want for their birthdays? Ice cream! Instead of a straight ice cream cake you can serve up this and when you cut into it they'll find the ice cream surprise!<br />

Once baked and filled you'll want to ice your cake and if using ice cream you really don't want to spend a lot of time decorating so I think adding strawberries and blueberries around the tiers with some edible sugar lady bug cake decorations to dot around the cake and a fairy topper to pop on the top, or even on one of the layers would make a perfect ice cream filled birthday cake for a little girl.<br />

Cupcakes are quite popular at birthday parties and if you use a cupcake tower you can turn cupcakes into your little girls birthday cake! The cupcake tower above actually has a small cake on top of the tower with a fairy on it and then lots of cupcakes on the different tiers and it looks great.

Simply make a small cake to pop on top of your tiered cake stand - decorate it as per the instructions and add Tinkerbell on top - she's actually a cake pick. Next decorate your cupcakes with different colored frosting, sprinkles, flowers, ladybugs and more.<br />
<br />
When my daughter asked for birthday cupcakes instead of a big birthday cake I actually really enjoyed making them because she wanted them all different so I simply made three batches of frosting - white, pink and blue - then I divided up the cupcakes and frosted an equal amount in each color. Next I got out all of my different colored sprinkles as well as some mini M&Ms and I made each cupcake different. Not only did my daughter absolutely love them all of her classmates also thought they were neat and the best thing of all by decorating only little cupcakes I didn't stress about messing something up!<br />

Of course, just because they're cupcakes it doesn't mean that you can't decorate them like the mini-cakes that they are. You can use cupcake wrappers as well as cupcake picks to decorate these fairy cupcakes in style.<br />

You can even get edible cake toppers that are made for cupcakes - simply frost your cupcake and then add one of these toppers to the cake, delicious.

Now it looks like a very unassuming little tool here, don't you think, but when you find out what the pink bit does....... well how about I just show you?</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
First you scoop up all of your cupcake batter like so -</div>

<br />
Next you activate the built in squeegee to make sure you don't leave any batter behind in the making of your cupcake!<br />

If you answered yes then your child (or even you) has succumbed to the online charms of the Moshi Monsters and it's hardly surprising as they're so cute! Moshi Monsters are just made to be replicated in cake form I think and they're certainly popular enough for parents to be looking high and low for ways of creating a perfect Moshi Monsters birthday cake for their child.<br />
<br />
I am going to look at how to make a Moshi Monsters cake and help you decide what type of Moshi Monsters cake you're going to make from the incredibly easy (buying an edible cake topper) to the more complicated (think Duff Goldman from Ace of Cakes) and lots in between.
Let's enter into the world of Moshi Monsters......<br />
<br />
<h1>
Easy Peasy Moshi Monsters Birthday Cake</h1>
<h2>
Moshi Monsters Edible Cake Toppers</h2>
The easiest way to make a Moshi Monsters cake is simply to buy a ready made slab cake, next cover it with frosting (brought or homemade) and then pop an edible cake topper on top of it.
<br />
<br />
You simply place the cake topper on the top of the cake and gently smooth it down to make sure there's no air bubbles underneath - how easy is that?
<br />
<br />
This is an example of a Moshi Monsters cake that has been decorated with an edible cake topper.
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/darkdwarf/7871368998/" title="11th Birthday by Dark Dwarf, on Flickr"><img alt="11th Birthday" src="https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7127/7871368998_de30b2d461.jpg" height="333" width="500"></a></div>
<br />
With this cake it looks like they have used fondant icing which I think would work really well with an edible topper, but if you haven't used these toppers before it's recommended that the first time you use frosting or royal icing instead - I'm really not sure why, but I followed that advice myself so I'm passing it on to you.
<br />
<br />
The Moshi Monsters edible topper has been placed in the center of the cake and then they've simply put candles around the outside. They've also managed to get a sleeve for around the cake which I haven't been able to find for sale locally or on Amazon so I'm not sure if it's an edible one or not, but it does tie the cake together nicely.
<br />
<br />
Now just because you've decided that you like the idea of using an edible topper it doesn't mean that you have to just pop it on the cake with some candles as you can also do some fancy icing as you can see on the topper for sale below.
<br />
<br />
Alternatively you can have some of the small Moshi Monster toys on top of the cake as well as the topper - how you decorate this birthday cake really is only limited by your imagination.
<br />

<br />
At the time of writing this is the only Moshi Monster edible topper that I can find online and that's even including checking ebay, but I will keep looking for some more so bookmark this page if you've got time before you'll need the Moshi Monsters cake.<br />

Create a Great Moshi Monsters Cake</h2>
Another option when it comes to making a Moshi Monsters birthday cake is to use a cake topper and I've found one that includes not one, but three Moshi Monsters on a stand with a background scene. If you're little Moshi Monster fan loves Furi, Poppet or Katsuma (who was one that my daughter used to talk about a lot) then this is definitely a topper that they'll like.
<br />

<br />
Of course you'll still need to ice the cake and it would be nice if you could do some type of design on it, but there's lots of options besides the one shown.<br />
<div style="clear: both; font-size: 0;">
<br /></div>
<br />
<br />
Last year, my daughter didn't have a birthday party as we took her away for a weekend including to a dance show that she wanted to see instead. She still wanted to take a birthday cake in to school for her classmates however and I'd brought an edible topper and was just going to buy a cake and decorate it - well when I went to the shop I could only get a two pack of un-iced sponges. I made up her 'official' birthday cake and then when she was at school I thought I'd just decorate the second sponge and let her have another cake as well (also handy in case we had any friends drop in to say happy birthday).
<br />
<br />
The reason I'm telling you this is because all I did was use white, vanilla frosting on the sponge and then I used large chocolate buttons and pushed them all over the cake like giant polka dots. Everyone thought it looked amazing and it took no time at all. You could use the same technique with smarties or m&ms as well - in fact brighter colors would probably look better if you're combining it with a fun Moshi Monsters cake topper.
<br />
<h1>
More Moshi Monsters Birthday Cake Ideas</h1>
Another idea for creating a cool Moshi Monsters birthday cake is just to make or buy a cake and add your favorite frosting or fondant and then buy some toys which your child can play with after wards. You can buy Moshi Monster's ROX which come in a tin, but out of the tin you could use them to decorate a cake and once the cake is eaten they can go back inside their collector's tin and become an extra little gift.
<br />
<br />
You can also buy Moshling figures which are absolutely perfect for adorning a birthday cake - check out some of the ideas below -

Of course if you're good at cake decorating you can do some Moshi Monsters designs freehand on your cake or even make your own Moshi Monster's sculptures. There really is no limit to what you can do if you just look into the Moshi Monsters world and let your imagination take over!

If you're pretty confident with your cake decorating, but need some inspiration then you'll love this video where a lady makes Cutie Pie cake one of the (surprise, surprise!) cutest of the Moshi Monsters. She doesn't tell you how to do this, instead you're just watching her make it, but it's really helpful for inspiration.
