Dora the Explorer's Quick Adventure

I got a very last minute cake request on Feb. 5th. Mike's mom needed a Dora the Explorer cake for the next day. It was for her step-granddaughter. I was a little irritated when I got the request for two reasons: 1. It didn't come across as a request. It was more like a demand. 2. She knew that her step-granddaughter's birthday was coming up. The date doesn't change. I made her birthday cake last year! But since I didn't have any other orders and her step-granddaughter is so dang cute, I made the cake.

I didn't have much time, so this was thrown together very quickly. I bought a Dora candle and made fondant flowers, clouds, stars and bees for a girly outside adventure cake.

Here are the fondant pieces:


And here's the cake:


It's cute! I just wish I had more time.
