Well, my 3 year old has once again changed her mind on the party theme. She watched Snow White the other day and is in love! So, we have to have a Snow White party now. Anyone care to help me design a cake? I've seen the doll cakes and will keep that in mind, but I'm trying to come up with other ideas. One question...I've seen sheet cakes with the 7 dwarves house and snow white and the dwarves around it. Well, I'm dying to do a mushroom/toadstool cake (basically 2 bowl cakes stacked upside down on top of each other). I know the dwarves didn't live in a mushroom, but would it look really strange to make that the house?
Example:

I have visions of a two layer cake with the dwarfs around the bottom layer and snow white on top. That is about all I can think of off the top of my head, but I don't see why the cottage could not be like the mushroom house.
Could you make the mushroom/toadstool shape but make the base cake look as though it's made of wood and the "roof" cake look as though it's made of thatch? You could always pretty it up a bit with window boxs, shutters, climbing plants and flowers etc.

Sorry, I got a phone call about the time I was giving my idea about the gingerbread house.
I was thinking you could make a small one and decorate it in the way you imagine the 7 dwarfs house to look. Then sit it on top of a sheet cake and add the dwarfs, snow white, trees, etc. Hmmm. I may just have to try this myself.
Anyways, I just wanted to finish my thought.
I like to use edible images to tell the story of the character. Look at my images and you can see a couple of two tiered cakes that have the main portion of the story on the bottom tier and the sky with clouds and in this case the prince riding in on his white horse. You can pipe the trees and grass and anything else you can to make it more 3d. My customers love these cakes and truthfully they are the easiest.
Well, I think I've decided on a Snow White doll cake and "poisoned apple" cupcakes (cupcakes decorated to look like apples, with gummy worms). There is a gorgeous Snow White doll cake someone here did (sorry, can't remember who off the top of my head) that is my inspiration!
