Hello again,
I will be throwing myself a 30th birthday party in September. I am pondering with the idea of making my own cake. My husband thinks I'm crazy! lol!
can you all share some ideas with me on a disco themed cake? I would love to do the disco ball, however I am still just a beginner. I would also like to make a two tiered cake if possible. Thanks in advance!

I think you HAVE to have the disco ball. It's the law. Why not make a mini disco ball for the 'topper' on your stacked cake? You could make it out of fondant or chocolate clay or even rice crispies covered in fondant if you don't want to tackle a round cake...

I found this and I loove it! It wouldn't be very hard either! I hope it helps!

Agree with Zahrah - you HAVE to do the disco ball! Nothing else could come close - and have a great birthday. Round cakes are easier than they look as Zahrah and Bashevita point out; just create a test cake before the big event. Gotta have lots of glitter on the cake.

Do you have the Wilton ball pan? That could be a tier and then put it on another tier for the bottom--any shape would work. Cut squares out of fondant and dust them with disco dust. That would be simple.

Do you have the Wilton ball pan? That could be a tier and then put it on another tier for the bottom--any shape would work. Dowel them together through the center. Ice it in buttercream then cut squares out of fondant and dust them with disco dust. That would be simple.

thanks ladies....I think i'm going to attempt to make the disco ball. wish me luck!

Can't wait to see the pic!

it should be 2-ties of cake with the disco ball on top looking like a 3rd tier. maybe musical notes painted around the sides of the 2nd tier, and people dancing around the bottom one

Vetty-

I just picked up your PM to me regarding directions on how I did my Disco Ball. I am writing them up for you now and you should have them shortly!

I agree with everyone else....the mirror ball or nothin' at all!!!!!

Watch for my pm!!!!!
