Ingredients
- Cake Mix (Vanilla or your preferred flavor)
- Ingredients for Cake Mix (Eggs, Oil, Water)
- Buttercream Frosting (Store-bought or homemade)
- Pink Food Coloring
- Sprinkles and Edible Glitter
- Barbie Doll (Clean and wrapped from the waist down)
- Round Cake Pans (Various sizes)

Instructions
- Prepare your cake batter according to the instructions on the box. Add pink food coloring for a vibrant hue.
- Divide the batter evenly among round cake pans of various sizes. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
- Cool the cake layers completely, then level them with a serrated knife. Cut a hole in the center of each layer to accommodate the Barbie doll.
- Place a small amount of frosting on your cake stand to secure the first layer. Stack the cake layers, using frosting between each layer for stability.
- Insert the Barbie doll into the center hole. Apply a crumb coat of frosting to the entire cake and refrigerate for 20-30 minutes.
- Apply a final layer of frosting. Use a piping bag and tip to create decorative swirls or rosettes around the ‘dress’ of the Barbie doll cake.
- Add sprinkles and edible glitter to enhance the magical effect.
- Inspect your Barbie doll cake for any imperfections and make final adjustments. Clean up any stray frosting for a professional presentation.
Notes
- Make sure to wrap the Barbie doll from the waist down with plastic wrap before inserting into the cake.
- Use different shades of pink to make the cake more visually appealing.
- A turntable is helpful for frosting, but not required.
- Feel free to add other decorations like fondant flowers or edible pearls.
