DD 3rd Birthday - help with suggestion

My little princess will be 3 next Friday (9th) and would like a cake for her birthday.
I think the supermarket ones are such a rip off and would like to make her one.
She's into Fifi, Disney Princesses, Dora, The Wiggles and I am stuggling on what to put on her cake. Does any one have a pattern or is there a picture on some website that I can some how copy to put on top of the cake.
The basic cake mixture is no problem, it's just the design of the thing!!!!!
Can anyone give any suggestions, PLEASE x;)

    For my son's birthday I used this guy off ebay. He prints out cake toppers. I had a Yu-Gi-Oh GX one, but he does others. It makes homemade cakes look professional Here is a Dora one:

    They are fantastic quality, plus he does the small wafer type rice paper toppers too for fairy cakes. The cakes were the talk of my son's birthday party.

    Hi

    I make cakes for a hobby and the things you can do are endless. If you just want to make your own cake and put a picture on it you just need to find a picture of said item. This could be from the internet, a photo or out of one of the children's magazines. You can then have this transferred onto edible sugar paper. I was in Tesco the other day and was noticed that they were doing it for one of their customers. I'm not sure if you have to buy a cake from them or not though. I go to a sugarcraft shop in Swindon to have mine done. I'm sure that there are also internet companies that will do it too. If you can find a sugarcraft shop you may be able to buy an already printed plaque which you can just attach to the cake yourself. Any other questions about cakes and the like just PM me- I'll only be too happy to help.
