Twins's 2nd Birthday

My mom made our twin's 1st birthday cakes.  On their 2nd birthday, I didn't want to bog her down with the responsibility, and I certainly didn't want to pay for two cakes. I started researching.

One of the girls was Mickey Mouse's biggest fan and the other didn't have anything that really interested her yet.  I googled "Mickey Mouse Cake" and came across a picture quite similar to mine...on a less cool plate.  I thought, "this looks pretty easy", so I ordered a Mickey pan off of ebay.  It didn't come with instructions so I had to download them.

After studying them, I took a trip to Michaels and got some frosting colors, tips, and frosting bags.  I was nervous, but figured they're only two and you can't really screw up Mickey Mouse...that bad.

Still not knowing what kind of cake to make for the other girl, I pooled my resources....same colors, same tips, same pan, and whala!  Minnie Mouse!
