My Nephew's First Birthday!

I got the chance to do my nephew's first birthday cake this weekend! I was glad it turned out pretty much what it looked like in my head and not a jumble of a homemade cake! His theme was Mickey Mouse Clubhouse! What a fun cake to make! Everyone loved it! It was a german chocolate / french vanilla cake mix with a new whipped cream icing that I found on the internet that was more set up than regular whipped frosting. It was yummy, not as sweet as buttercream, but it was not as stiff as I would have liked. However, I covered the cakes in fondant, the bottom layer was a homemade marshmallow fondant and the top was a store bought fondant just because it is so hard to get a real red color so I bought the premade red color! The filling was a whipped marshmallow cookie filling...of my own design obviously since I cannot think of a better name for it!
