When I ordered all my cakes I specifically asked for Winnie and/or friends. They said any character except them... So, I ordered Minnie and Piglet brought it out.
HTH.

ordered the mini-castle cake from the GF bakery last week for my family. it was only $25. it's tiny but after a big dinner it was just enough for the 5 of us. plus we were able to hit the MK and do all the rides not feeling over stuffed!
For some reason, the picture didn't show up on my previous post.
The cake I was referring to was on page 1, post #6.
Sorry for the mix-up!!!
bamagirl,
I have a few questions if you don't mind:
What flavor of cake and filling did you order?
Also, how much did it cost all together with the Mickey/Minnie topper and personalization?
Are you having it delivered to someplace else besides GF?
Sorry to bother you, but there have been other posters that have had trouble ordering a cake from GF bakery.
I'd like the cake delivered to O'hana for our dinner there.
Thank you for your time.
The characters can't bring out the cakes. If you're lucky you can have your waitor/waitress time it so that the cake is brought out when a certain character is at your table, but they can't really guarantee anything because the characters have to make their way around both rooms. We were lucky that Eeyore was at our table when my sister's cake was brought out, but we had to wait like 15-20 minutes for it. That was the character my sister wanted to see the most and we missed him the first time around so we had to wait for him to come back to our table. But I think it all depends on luck if you can have the character at your table when the cake is brought out.Very interesting, they are allowed to have Pooh characters walking around the park, have a Winnie the Pooh ride, and yet they can't put a Pooh character on a cake? How weird is that? Oh well, maybe if we end up eating at the Crystal Palace Tigger can bring the cake out?

Grand Floridian will NOT deliver cakes to anywhere, but the rooms at their resort, or their dining venues. They DO NOT allow you to customize cake flavors on 6inch, or 8 inch cakes this was told to me by 3 different people the chef, the private dining lady, I believe her name was linda, and a lady working int he bakery. Also decos start at 25 dollars and up, but I believe the mickey was 40 or so. I alled many different times, on different days, and spoke to different people. What wows me is that out of the different days, and the numerous people I spoke with INCLUDING GF Private dining they offered me NO help, and made it seem like I was making more trouble for them. Even when talking to the chef he was NOT helpfull at all told me extremely generic options on decorating that he could do, and flat out said I could only have chocolate/chocolate, or vanilla/vanill choices, even after I mentioned I was told by some others who have ordered I could pick flavors on 8 inch. I was told NO. I was also told in a pretty harsh manner that the chef has told private dining, and the bakery that he does NOT want anymore pick up orders being taken as they have had issues with people not showing up. I was even told why don't I call my own resort. I had a bad experience with GF even after talking to different cast members working there, and private dining. I would like to give them another try, but even with me saying I wanted something really special to celebrate our honeymoon, and first trip to disneyworld to surprise my DH they offered me NOTHING special they could do, and did not even try when I spoke to the chef.
bamagirl and Lostgirlz,
I'd like to thank you both for your advice.
As I understand it, there are bakeries at all the deluxe resorts.
My DH and I will be going to dinner at O'hana at the Poly, so I think I am going to call the Poly bakery and see what they can do for me.
Maybe someone can answer this question for me in the mean time:
Does the bakery at the MK deliver to the restaurants?
I'm thinking about calling them instead of the Poly bakery.
I'd appreciate it if someone can help me.
I'm getting really confused!!!
