To Make Mini Teddy Bear Shaped Baby Shower Cakes You will need:

1 of your favorite boxed white cake mixes

1 - 2 Tub of Vanilla icing

White Tube Writing Icing (2 to 3 tubes)

1 Teddy Bear cookie cutter (about 4 inches wide)

Bake your favorite cake mix as usual. You need to bake it in a 13" X 9" baking pan. You can bake two cakes (or more for a large baby shower) and cut them out exactly the same to make a large number of Mini Teddy Bear Shaped Baby shower Cakes.

Once the cake has cooled flip it out of the baking pans onto a large platter, carving board, or whatever you have.

Now, stick the cake in the freezer for about 20 to 30 minutes. You want to slightly freeze is, but not freeze it completely. This will help you cut it into the shape of the Mini Teddy Bear Shaped Cakes.

Now, use a Teddy Bear cookie cutter to cut out the Mini Teddy Bear Cakes on the sheet cake. Simply press the cookie cutter in like you would cookie dough. Pop the bear out and lay it on a flat surface.

You should find this sheet cake cuts easily into the shape of these Mini Teddy Bear Cakes since it is chilled and slightly frozen. This will make the cake much more easy to cut and get crisp clean edges of the small Teddy Bear.

Now, you really should go ahead and place these simple Mini Teddy Bear Cakes on a board or serving platter before you decorate it. You will not be able to move it once you decorate it or you will ruin it.
