Mini Wedding Cakes

These are some of the mini cakes I made. The tier sizes are 3 1/2", 2 1/4", and 1". Covered in fondant - each decorated differently. The white one is MMF the other 3 are Wilton pre-colored. They are each setting on a 4" mirror for the base.

the bottom is 3 1/2", the middle is 2 1/4" and the top is about 1". The bottom is 2 layers and the other two are single layers. Yes - they are setting on 4" mirrors! That worked out great as the base. Thank you for the nice comments.

hi i havent never made any mini cakes but i,m wanting to make some for favors how do you make them do you make a sheet cake and then cut out with round cookie cutters? you done a great job love them

Yes, that is how you do them. Some folks freeze them to make it easier (I don't like to freeze cakes so mine were a little crumbly under the fondant!) I iced them in buttercream and then covered them in fondant (did each layer sperately) the colored ones are made with the Wilton fondant, the white one is made with homemade MMF. After getting the fondant on all of them I then went back and did the decorating. the mirrors they are setting on were .99 each at the craft store.

Thank you. The mini cakes are always the ones that really get some attention! Thanks for the tip on the cookie cutters, I never thought of those!

The pink and the white ones are my personal favorites - I was getting tired by the time I got to the green one!
