Minion Cake



I love minions! I can't wait for their movie, coming out next year I think? I have made a minion cake topper, but on my list of 'cakes to be made' is a minion carved cake. It's not carved as such. I used 6 inch cakes and topped with a half sphere cake for the top of the head. Putting the details on a cake is the best bit- cake comes alive almost! My favourite bit is the hair- I was worried that they wouldn't stay put, but they did! This is a tallish cake- 9" high and 6" in diameter. The mini cake is 3" round and about 3" high. Mini cake was actually taller and didn't look right, so I cut off the bit above the green stripe, and placed the yellow fondant on top, then added the blue candle with yellow flame. Cake is chocolate and vanilla buttercream, same with the mini cake. 

All together now "Banaaanaaa"...
