If using regular doll: With a knife inserted through middle of top of the cake where the doll will be inserted, carve out a 1 1/2 inch hole. If using 7 inch doll pick instead of the regular doll, DO NOT CARVE OUT THE HOLE IN THE TOP OF THE CAKE. Just insert doll pick into top of cake.
Step 14
FOR REGULAR DOLL: Remove clothes and shoes from doll. Tie doll’s hair into a pony tail with a ribbon or rubber band. Wrap doll from chest to bottom of feet in aluminum foil.
