This cake is very close to my heart. You know why, because i made this for my little ones 3rd birthday. Kids birthdays are so special to everyone. So i make it a point to make their birthday cake all by myself. It gives me immense joy and satisfaction.
I made this simple mini princess cake using a eggless vanilla cake and it turned out perfect. The cake itself is a two tiered cake. One is the base square cake and on the top is the mini princess cake.
You can check my birthday cakes archives for all recipes.
Hope you will give this a try and let me know how it turns out for you.
