Celebrate with our easy Barbie cake using 5 Coles ingredients: ready-to-go cakes, marshmallows, buttercream icing, pink food coloring, and flower decorations. Decorate creatively and quickly in just 45 minutes - a perfect last-minute birthday treat!
Ingredients:
  • 3 x 600g White Mud Cakes
  • 2 x 520g pkts pink and white marshmallows
  • 2 x 400g ctns Bake & Create Vanilla Buttercream Icing
  • Pink food colouring, to tint
  • 2 pkts Bake & Create Pink Flower Decorations
Instructions:
  • Detach the doll's legs (they can be reattached later) and wrap the base of the doll in plastic wrap.
  • Arrange one mud cake upside-down in the center of a serving plate. Add the other two cakes as well, upside-down. Use a 6cm cutter to create a small ring in the center of the top cake. Gently take out the center cake to form a hole. Score a ring with a small sharp knife about 3-4cm away from the center hole. Test the depth of the hole with the Barbie doll to ensure it fits up to her waist. Take out the doll.
  • With a sharp knife, slice the cake from the top scored ring to the base at an angle to form a cone shape resembling a dress. Gently press the outer surface of the cake to seal any crumbs. Brush off any crumbs on the serving plate using a pastry brush.
  • Transfer the buttercream icing to a bowl and mix in pink food dye until fully tinted. Spread the beautifully colored icing evenly over the entire cake.
  • Slice the pink marshmallows in half, and set aside the white marshmallows for a future recipe. Arrange the cut side of the marshmallows in rows around the cake. Nestle the flowers among the marshmallows for a charming touch. Finally, place Barbie on top of the cake and present your creation. Enjoy!
