Fondant is a versatile and fun medium to work with when it comes to cake decorating. And what could be more iconic and adorable than a Mickey Mouse cake topper made out of fondant? In this step-by-step guide, we will walk you through the process of making your very own Mickey Mouse with fondant. Let's get started!

Materials Needed:

  • Fondant (black, red, white, and yellow)
  • Rolling pin
  • Cornstarch or powdered sugar (to prevent sticking)
  • Small knife
  • Edible glue or water
  • Food-safe paintbrush
  • Black food coloring (gel or powder)
  • Round cookie cutter (for the head)
  • Heart-shaped cookie cutter (for the pants)
  • Oval-shaped cookie cutter (for the ears)

Step 1: Knead the Fondant

Start by kneading the fondant to soften it and make it more pliable. Divide the fondant into the following portions: black (for the head and ears), red (for the pants), white (for the gloves and eyes), and yellow (for the shoes).

Step 2: Roll out the Fondant

Dust your working surface with cornstarch or powdered sugar to prevent sticking. Roll out the black fondant to about ¼ inch thickness. Use a round cookie cutter to cut out a circle for the head. Set it aside.

Next, roll out the black fondant again to make two smaller circles for the ears. Use an oval-shaped cookie cutter or template to cut out the ears. Set them aside.

Roll out the red fondant to about ¼ inch thickness. Use a heart-shaped cookie cutter to cut out a heart shape for the pants. Set it aside.

Roll out the white fondant and cut out two small circles for the eyes using a round piping tip or any small circular object. Set them aside.

Finally, roll out the yellow fondant to make two small ovals for the shoes. Set them aside.

Step 3: Assemble the Mickey Mouse Topper

Using edible glue or water as adhesive, attach the black head onto the red pants, placing it slightly above the center of the heart shape. Attach the two black ears to the top of the head at a slight angle.

Attach the white circles for the eyes onto the black head, positioning them slightly towards the bottom. Use a black food coloring gel or powder to paint small dots on each white circle to resemble the pupils.

Attach the yellow ovals for the shoes to the bottom of the red pants, making sure to leave a small gap between them.

Step 4: Let it Dry

Allow your Mickey Mouse fondant topper to dry completely. This may take anywhere from a few hours to overnight. Once dry, it will hold its shape and be ready for placement on your cake.

Now you have your very own Mickey Mouse cake topper made out of fondant! This adorable decoration will surely impress any Disney fan. Use it to add a touch of magic to your next birthday party or special occasion!

Remember to store any leftover fondant in an airtight container to prevent it from drying out. Enjoy your cake decorating adventure and have fun creating your own Disney-inspired masterpieces!
