I was working on a cake for my friends daughter's graduation party and was fretting about whether to make a salon chair or use a plastic one. I asked another friend who has small daughters if they happend to have a Barbie salon chair and they did....hooray for me! My 15 yr. daughter was appalled that I would put something plastic on my cake and not hand mold the chair and she says to me, "Have you no cake morals!!??"

Geez!!

Your cake is too cute, plastic chair and all. Cake morals...that's funny.

haha, too funny. My kids are the same way, they say that anyone can put plastic on a cake, but Mommy is better than that.

Too funny!

good grief, that is the kind of thing DH says too. Too funny. But I dont see them volunteering to make the chair..

Your cake is adorable.

Just wait until your daughter is getting married. When she picks out her cake topper, respond with "Have you no cake morals?"

lol, jk, kinda. Great idea to use the barbie chair! I love it when you're in a little pickle and then there's that one stroke of luck that makes everything turn out wonderfully!

what did you use to make the chocolate ganache? It looks so shiny?

This cake needs some explanation!

My friend's daughter graduated from high and is going into beauty school. She remembers her daughter as a little girl, playing in the mud, so the ganache represents the mud. The girl in the beauty salon chair also has muddy feet. The words "Mud Princess" perfectly describe her. The dragonfly is a symbol that represents a dear friend that we lost a few years back who would have been very proud of Sydney graduating.
