Mini Frozen Fever Cake with video tutorial

The Frozen Fever short movie played before the Cinderella movie. It was short and sweet. Elsa made elaborate plans to spoil Anna on her birthday, one of which was a party with an enormous four tiered cake. Big enough for a wedding. I’ve made a mini version for you here. Spoiler alert: Elsa falls sick with a fever and every time she sneezes mini snowgies fall to the ground and run off. The cynical side of me saw this movie as purely a marketing push for new toys – with a change of outfit for both girls, a new song and the snowgies. So once you’re kitted out with the new toys and in need of the cake, here’s how to make it.
