Minion Cake

I loved making this cake.!!!!! Cutest thing ever- who doesn't love minions.?! This cake was the request of my friend's younger sister. She wanted pink on her cake, but not a pink cake because boys would be at the party...and boys don't like pink cake. :) Too cute.!

 I modeled my little minions out of gumpaste (an edible clay) colored with food gel. The most helpful guide I found to making the minions was this website which I slightly referenced: http://www.instructables.com/id/Despicable-Me-Fondant-Minions

I brushed pink shimmer dust on the 12 (also formed out of gumpaste), sprinkled blue sprinkles all over the top of the cake, and piped different borders around each tier. Love it.! One minion has gotten into the icing, one is ready to party with his birthday hat on, and one is licking his little minion lips and patting his tummy- they're all about to dive into the icing and tear the cake apart.!
