Sofia the First doll cake

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. \r
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 :)\r

Chocolate ganache recipe - \r
- 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 doesnt burn). I use the ratio of 3 to 1 chocolate to double cream\r
