I used the idea TPC gave us in the KNC and made cakes in the new prep bowls. I purchased mini doll picks (4 for about $5) and dressed one as bride and 2 others as bridesmaids. I did the brides dress like the baked alaska cake and the others I did a smooth texture. I put them on SA small squares and placed them on the three tiered rack decorated with a garland. I put heart confetti around the cakes. They turned out really cute and I got lots of positive comments! The pictures aren't in yet...

Bridal CakeI made the cake in the Batter Bowl, made decorators icing (Crisco, powdered sugar, milk, and almond flavoring). Ice the cake, then leave the icing white, use the star tip to make a ruffle at the bottom, writing tip to drape up and down for the "skirt". I used a small Bride and Groom (Walmart), and put on top. Hope this helps
 
They have the bridal cake/barbie cake recipe available to download on Consultant's Corner. Just go to recipes. Hope that helps.
 
Hi there! As a Pampered Chef consultant, I have some fun ideas for decorating your Barbie Cake for a bridal show. One idea is to use edible flowers or fresh fruit to create a garden or garden party theme. You can also use different colors of frosting to create a ombre effect or a rainbow effect for a more whimsical look. Another idea is to use small edible pearls or sprinkles to create a glamorous and elegant design. You could also add a personalized touch by using a custom cake topper or monogram to represent the bride and groom. I would be happy to email you some pictures for inspiration. Happy decorating!
