These adorable Disney donuts render regular-resembling O-shaped baked goods to look like famous cartoon characters. From Fork to Belly, the cute pastries are decorated in the likeness of Micky Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Donald and Daisy Duck.
Even though she didn't recreate any of their faces, food blogger Courtney recreates the Disney donuts using characteristic color palettes and recreating their outfits using candy melts in a variety of colors. For example, one half of the Minnie-inspired treats are dark brown with the latter half being red with white polka dots. Other distinctive traits include the iconic mouse ears, Micky's distinctive red pants, Donald's tiny blue sailor hat and Daisy's pink bow.
The donuts themselves are adapted from a recipe by Sally at Sally's Baking Addiction.
