My Little Pony Cake

Sofia's big 4 cake was a pony themed cake, because we rented a pony for her party (and some small farm animals for petting). So as I thought about what to do for her cake, I knew she wanted bright colors etc., so I went with a My Little Pony cake. I thought about making the ponies out of fondant or gum paste, but there they were available for purchase for a small price, to save me hours of molding....sold!

So as part of the birthday fun, we decorated cupcakes, so I felt I could get away with a relatively small cake. This one was a double 10" cake. Covered in fondant with fondant flower and heart cut outs. A gum paste rainbow and butter cream clouds. Also the pony behind sat on a 3D sun (difficult to tell from these pictures) The birthday girl was very happy with her confectionary model, so mommy was too. I was going for more of a color theme, than "my little pony" so I found these adorable cupcake plates and scooped up a few for fun! Hope you enjoy!
