Two little Minion Cakes for a 7 yr. old

3D Minion Birthday Cake with minion cupcakes

Today's birthday cake is a 3D Minion cake from the movie Despicable Me. Four 6" vanilla cakes were stacked to create this fondant covered cake. This was a really fun cake to make and thanks to this fantastic tutorial put out by Ann of How to Cook That it was pretty stress-free. Trying to deliver it and deal with a four car accident on the way was most certainly stressful. Thank god I had air-conditioning in the car.

The customer also ordered 30 Minion fondant face cupcakes to feed the birthday girl's class at school. How lucky are they?
