Make birthday dreams come true with these 10 breathtaking Barbie cake designs! Whether you’re a DIY baker or ordering from a pro, these creative and colorful cakes will light up your child’s special day. From princess gowns to magical themes, each cake is as sweet as the smile it brings!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 boxed vanilla or chocolate cake mix (or homemade cake batter)

  • 1 Barbie doll (or similar fashion doll)

  • 3 cups buttercream frosting (various colors if desired)

  • Food coloring (gel recommended for vibrant hues)

  • Sprinkles, edible pearls, or decorative fondant (optional)

  • Round and oven-safe bowl-shaped cake pans


Instructions

  1. Bake two round cakes and one dome-shaped cake using your preferred batter.

  2. Let cakes cool completely, then level the tops.

  3. Stack the cakes with a layer of frosting in between to form a dress shape.

  4. Carefully wrap the doll’s lower half in plastic wrap and insert it into the center of the cake.

  5. Frost and decorate the “dress” using piping bags and various tips.

  6. Add sprinkles, pearls, or fondant accents to complete the design.

  7. Chill slightly before serving to help the frosting set.

Notes

Use a tall cake base or carve layers to give the dress more volume.

Freeze layers briefly before stacking for easier shaping.

Try themed designs like fairy Barbie, ballerina Barbie, or mermaid Barbie!

Great for birthdays, tea parties, or any Barbie-themed celebration.
