The Barbie Girl that satisfies your sweet tooth!
Posted by roanne in Barbie, Cake, Chocolates, Food on March 17, 2009
I just love looking at this statuesque Barbie doll donning a one-piece silk dress with tulle-or-taffeta-like trail, a combination of a bustier top and bias (fish tail) cut bottom embellished with glistening crystals and florals–all made to perfection.

Only, I can’t imagine that this one’s edible?! 
Looks like the Aussies have another take in celebrating the world’s famous doll‘s birthday.
Mattel Australia unveiled a life-size Barbie Doll chocolate mud cake for her golden birthday celebration. About 7-foot tall, this pretty enormous cake covered in gold icing, gold silk and around 2,000 Swarovski crystals (valued at $50k) weighs 2,645 pounds! The cake was designed by fashion designer Alex Perry, jewelery designer Stefano Canturi, and hairdresser John Bailey, in collaboration with Sweet Art Bakers. Its design was based on the 50th Anniversary Barbie LE (limited edition) doll.

I got the chance before to pick 6 among 19 different flavors. My favorite one is Antoinette, which is composed of pistachio cream, white chocolate ganache and white chocolate couverture glazed with crushed pistachio nuts. I also love Roca, too–a dark chocolate truffle with caramel and crushed almonds. Read the rest of this entry »
