That only works in the defective browser Internet Explorer. Using
compliant modern browsers show nothing on a hover. Try Firefox.

You should use the title attribute for what you want a mouse hover to
show in the tooltip window. Also, the alt attribute is meant to be a
*replacement* for the image for those who have images turned off or are
using a non-graphical browser.

Your page has a lot of other markup problems, too. Ask if you want
further help on those. You could start here:
<http://www.htmlhelp.com/cgi-bin/validate.cgi?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.tortebomboniere.com%2Fbomboniere%2Fcake055-minnie_mouse_daisy_duck_disney.html&warnings=yes>
...and consider using shorter file names. That would make life easier.
