I made characters cake for my daughter's 4th birthday. She loved it. She is fond of princess movies and cartoons. She loves role playing with her dolls. She was happiest to see the surprise cake. She wanted to play with it too but it was not a toy although later she was happy with the card decorations on cake. She played with princess card later.
It took me whole day to make the cake and later I was exhausted but happy to see my daughter happy and content. I will make character cake next time too.
