Sofia the first cake! In this cake decorating tutorial I show you how to make a doll cake of the Disney princess Sofia the first.
In this tutorial I show you how to make the Sofia the First doll to stick in the cake using a cake dowel and modelling paste / fondant, as well as the cake itself. If you are not confident in creating the doll itself, you can just place a Disney princess barbie doll of Sofia in the cake instead :)
A Sofia the First doll cake makes the perfect birthday cake for your little girls birthday party!

Chocolate ganache recipe -
- To make chocolate ganache you can simply melt chocolate with double cream in a glass bowl above a pan of boiling water ( I use the hob to heat the water, but be sure to turn this right down once the chocolate begins to melt so it doesn't burn). I use the ratio of 3 to 1 chocolate to double cream
