When we were first approached by the husband about an anniversary cake that he is presenting to his wife as a surprise 4th anniversary gift, he did not know where to start. At first, we gave him suggestions and we had planned something to surprise them both. However, five days prior to the delivery date, he sent us a private message on Facebook with a photo inspiration attached. The photo was a 2-tier round cake in white, black and red color scheme with the topper of printed Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse cartoon (not sure if it was printed on edible sheet using edible ink). It depicts the couple with their backs facing the front as they watched the sunset while sitting on a wooden bench.
It was a brilliant idea, which we used as inspiration to create something with our own personal twist. As you know, even when we're asked to copy anything out there, we do not just copy or mimic exactly what's shown on the picture, but we make it a little different with our own personal touch.
The
cake is made of double layered 8-inch round cinnamon swirls cake with
cream cheese buttercream. He also ordered cookies and cream cupcakes and
cake pops (chocolate and peanut butter candy melts) to go along with
it. It's a cake/cupcake.cake pop tower.
We apologize for the sloppy result on the cupcake frosting. We made the cookies and cream cupcakes and frosted with cream cheese buttercream decorated with a couple of small oreo cookies to look like mouse's ears; however, the frosting was too hard we had to make amendments, but by the time we finished frosting, the frosting liquefied. It was still delicious, just not that appealing.
We also made silhoutte Mickey and Minnie Cake Pops all in cookies and cream. The Mickey Mouse cake pops were coated in black dark cholocate melts while the Minnie Mouse cake pops were coated with a combination of vanilla and peanut butter candy melts. We used a pair of white sprinkle hearts for the bows.
In the end, the wife was pleasantly surprised and the husband was happy with the outcome.
