After a lot of thought, I asked for a Belle cake with Christmas accents (since we would be attending Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party). The cake was $150 and was 10" with chocolate cake and white chocolate filling. Nine of us split it and there was plenty to spare. It was brought to our villa at Wilderness Lodge on a silver platter with table linens, silverware, and a serving knife. 
My birthday was a few days after we would have returned from our WDW trip last year, so I told my DH that the only thing that I wanted was a custom birthday cake
They were going to charge an arm and a leg to paint Belle, so we asked them to leave her be. When the cake arrived, they had hand painted her for free!
Overall we were very happy and would definitely order a custom cake again! Yes, it was ridiculously expensive but it really was a Disney experience.
The did a really nice job on painting her.
I am planning on ordering a birthday cake for my daughter's 11th birthday in August. We will be staying in Saratoga Springs & I am planning on having it delivered to The Turf Club Bar & Grill where we will be dining our first night. As there will only be three of us I am thinking of getting the two tier mini cake. She loves collecting vinylmations so I was wondering if they would be able to decorate it somehow with a vinylmation theme? Thanks for any help
there is a small cake on page 1 of this thread that has a Vinylmation theme. My phone won't let me copy it, but it's in the 2nd to last post on page 1. (I can copy it later from home) Mind you, it's Star Wars Vinylmation, but they definitely decorate the cake in 2D stand-up Vinylmations from seeing this. You may just have to provide them images of the specific Vinylmations you'd like to see in edible form on the cake.

Ooohhhh I wonder if I could get Brian to do this with Belle or Mulan.Well, this is a new one...
On the first page, you can see there are a series of princess cakes available for CRT. This person convinced the Contemporary bakery to do a cake in that style, but instead dress her as Sofia the First and insert an edible image of Sophia in the dress.
While I know none of these cakes are "cheap," I was surprised that this was only $75. It's also the first Sophia cake I've seen and the only time I've ever seen them deviate from the stock princesses and designs for the CRT cakes.
That looks amazing! Something like this would be perfectOK...this is the cake I was thinking of...
While I'm mixed about how they look on this cake...I think it could work really well on a mini wedding cake. Boardwalk handles SSR, and they are usually pretty good with the creative elements, so that's a plus as well. And since the Vinylmation typcially come with a card bearing a 2D image of the figure...it should be fairly easy for them to get images for 2D edible standups of the various Vinylmations.

I sent him an email and he asked me to send him an attachment with the pictures. So waiting to here what he says.
