Mickey Mouse Cupcake Cake

A friend of mine asked me to do a cupcake cake in the shape of Mickey Mouse's head for her son's 2nd Birthday party. I used a cookie sheet wrapped in red tissue paper as my platform to keep the cupcakes together. I took cupcakes (completely cooled) and arranged them to resemble Mickey Mouse's head. Once in place, I slathered on icing to make it seem like all the cupcakes were one image.

I took some icing and put it in a plastic sandwich bag, twisted it up so all the icing was in the same corner, cut off a small bit of the corner of the bag, and used that to pipe the words on. I then took the remaining cup cakes and frosted them with red and white icing and piped various designs on them as well. This cake went over very well - everyone loved it and wanted to know how to do it for themselves!
