It seems to me that no one believed Pinkie could do it. The Cakes, who Pinkie lives with, should know her well enough because she lives with them. They didn't believe she could do it, and that's why they didn't ask her right away. Twilight is Pinkie's friend, and she probably doesn't know Pinkie as well as the Cakes, but it seems to me that she too believes that Pinkie wasn't capable. The Cakes and Twilight doubted her. Of course Pinkie wasn't capable, but by the end of episode, she learned the hard way what responsibilities were needed when caring for young ponies, thus proving herself capable in the future. You shouldn't condemn Twilight for "knowing" her friend, because then you have to condemn the Cakes for "knowing" the pony that lives and works with them.
