Another fun girl's birthday cake idea is a castle cake. Remove the legs and push the Barbie into the top of the 'skirt'. Find an old Barbie doll or purchase an inexpensive Barbie size doll from a crafts store or a Dollar store. Ice and decorate the "skirt" in any color and fashion.

You can add the Barbie after the cake is decorated. Invert the cake and make sure it is completely cooled before frosting. This will be the "hoop skirt". Make a cake using a dome shape pan or bowl.
