Party with Barney and Friends

I love you..
You love me..
We're best friends like friends should be..
With a great big hug and
A kiss from me to you...
Won't you say you love me too?

I really love this theme song for Barney and friends. A famous children TV show produced in the U.S. aimed at very young children ages 1-4. This show conveys learning through songs and small dance routines with a friendly, optimistic attitude.


The title character Barney - A purple T-Rex dinosaur in stuffed animal likeness.


Baby Bop - A green Triceratop dinosaur. She wears a ribbon on her head.


B.J. - A yellow Protoceratop dinosaur. He wears a red baseball cap and a pair of red sneakers.


Party with Barney and friends commissioned by Carol for her cute little girl Ethel Cade who turns one. It was a chocolate moist cake filled with chocolate ganache, covered with milk buttercream and decorated with fondant figurines. All figurines were handmade and edible except for the number 1 candle.  The sides of the cake were piped to resemble a basket weave design.


Along with the cake, was a set of 25 cupcakes with the same theme. They were vanilla buttermilk cupcakes filled with strawberry pie filling and covered with strawberry flavoured buttercream.


All cupcake toppers were made of fondant/sugarpaste.


I like it when I am given ample time and notice for an order. This order was placed way back in May.. almost 2 months before the date of delivery. This way, I have more time in doing the planning and some research on how to execute this project. Yes, I call it a project.. heheh..


All ready for collection. Happy 1st Birthday to little angel Ethel Cade. Thanks Caroline for the order and your great feedback made my day :).

  1. The Barney cake is really cute. Do you use mould for those figurines, so adorable and the cupcakes too.

  2. No there's no specific moulds. Just use the basic fondant tools. Wish someone would invent it to make life easier :)
    Thanks.
