       In order to make these doll wedding cakes you will need to cut, glue and stack three small cardboard 'drum' shapes in graduating sizes. Wedding cakes can made to be as fancy or plain as your doll prefers!

Supply List:
  • masking tape
  • cardboard
  • tacky white craft glue
  • circular templates
  • paper mache pulp
  • trims: beads, buttons, rick-rack etc...
  • acrylic paints
  • hot glue gun and hot glue
  • nail
  • Mod Podge
  • Sculpey
  • oven bake clay press molds
  • transparent glitter
  • many toilet paper rolls/cardboard tubes
Step-by-Step Instructions:
  1. Cut three circles: large, medium and small from a sturdy cardboard. 
  2. Cut to fit, recycled toilet paper tubes around the edges of each circle, using tacky glue and masking tape to secure the attached sides. Each of these drum shaped, faux cakes needs to be approximately the same height, but not the same size.
  3. Stack these on top of each other large to small using tacky glue and let them dry.
  4. Cover all of the surfaces with masking tape.
  5. Shape the fancy scroll work using press molds and Sculpey. 
  6. Remove the shapes from the molds, trim and bake according to instructions on the product box.
  7. Hot glue the scroll clay pieces to the parts of the masked cakes you would like to decorate with these.
  8. Mix together paper mache pulp according to the instructions included on the product bag.
  9. Spread this evenly on the outside surface of your cakes using your finger tips and a little bit of water to make it smooth. Let dry, this may take time. Set the pieces in the sunshine to help.
  10. Add color to each cake using acrylic paints.
  11. Smear glue over surface and add glitter. (optional)
  12. Glue on any additional trims if you like.
  13. Use a nail to poke a hole in the top of the cake to insert clay or floral trims. Use hot glue and hot glue gun to make these kinds of attachments.
  14. Mod Podge the surfaces when these are finished.
