Oh No! They Don't Make Them Anymore...

So apparently I am the last person on the planet to realize that they no longer make Mickey Mouse pans. I told a lady today that I could make her a Mickey Mouse cake, but that was before I realized that I can't buy the pan! I was thinking about using just regular round pans for the head (two small, one larger), but does anyone have any advice for piping on the face? Do I need to carve it to give it definition? Any help at all would be appreciated!!!
maybe look on Ebay and see if you can find one for sale there....???....unless you are crunched for time and can't wait for the pan to be shipped to you.....otherwise if you were just going to do a flat round cake, maybe try to do a FBCT...??? but it sounds like you want the cake to look like it was baked in a character pan....hmmm...
Here is a link to a Minnie Mouse cake

Mickey could be done the same way. HTH
Before you actually sell a copyrighted/licensed character like Mickey mouse please take a look at the following forums. You can also do a search of the forums for "copyright" and find a lot more topics about this. Some people do it anyways, but please read up and be informed first.

Thanks for the info on that.
I think what I am going to do is-I found a good template online, printed it out to the size of the pan, so I am going to trace it with piping gel and then transfer it to the top of the cake. Then I will have a template to fill in with BC. Then two small 4 inches for the ears. Does that sound like it will work? Or should I call her and just ask if I can do it in fondant instead?
I think it would work. I think it would be wise to carve the 4 inch cakes slightly so they would fit tightly against the curve of the main cake. After you ice it, it would look like it was all one cake not 3 seperate pieces.

I was thinking about that, too, and I think you are definately right.
Thanks everyone!!
