Doll Cake is an easy to make pretty cake. Loved by all kids especially girls. Make this cake for your princess. It is sure to be a hit on her Birthday Party. Delight your princess with a magical princess doll cake for her birthday party that's easier to make than you think …

      I have followed a very simple method to make the cake as well as frosting/ Icing too. You can used Whipped cream frosting, Butter cream frosting or Fondant works to decorate the doll. Here i have used a single petal nozzle to decorate the whole cake. You can decorate with the colours and patterns of dress for the dress as you or your kids wish. I have used Pink colour and Strawberry flavour to match the colour. Also the flavour is the most liked by Kids.
