The carnage of a Barbie cake.....

Just look at Barbie, raising her hands in the air like she just does not care.
I have found that Barbie cakes are loved by people of all ages. What a bunch of sick bastards.
I love making them but I don't really care for the dolls that are made specifically for the Barbie cakes. I think they look like someone's unfortunate cousin who lives over at The Briny Breezes trailer park... trashy.
Look at Barbie entertaining the crowd before the cake knife comes out.

Barbie is so polite, she's all too happy to lift up her arm and keep it up so the cake can get sliced up and served. Barbie is a people pleaser, a giver. She's only happy when those around her are happy no matter what it takes.
I buy a new Barbie and then depending on the size of the cake needed, I either rip out one or both of her legs. It's cake physics.
This was a smaller sized Barbie cake so I ripped out both of her legs and shoved her torso into the delicious devils food cake with chocolate fudge frosting I had made for the party.
Because most people don't really care for the taste of fondant, I enjoy not using it. Instead I use a frosting recipe and I smooth it out and let it firm up and get chilled in the fridge. Then using a dry paint brush, I carefully apply disco luster dust all over the cake.
One of the many, many excellent things about disco luster dust is that while it is edible, you don't digest it. That stuff comes out the same way it went in. Natural and gluten free.
