A different kind of cupcake cake

The Edinburgh Cupcake Company posted this photo on Flickr - not only is there a giant cupcake cake in the middle, and smaller cupcakes surrounding it, but there are also sparkly music signs!

I bought the pan to make the giant cupcakes and i can't figure out how to bake it and it not come out dense and dry. It was cute but not great for eating. If anyone knows please help.
Yes, fondant with buttercream dots. Can't have too much sugar at a birthday party (especially when it's someone else's children)!
I add six tablespoons of milk to a basic vanilla sponge recipe, cook it at 160 degrees centigrade and cook each half separatey. The bottom takes around 40-50 mins and the top around 20-25. Good luck!
