Princess Caroline's Castle Birthday Cake
I made this castle birthday cake for my daughter Caroline's 3rd birthday. She asked for a princess party and what, princess doesn't deserve a castle cake, especially your own little princess. So I started by coming to this website and looking at all the cakes here and got some great ideas from all the cakes.
I started 3 days before her party. First I took cake cones and sugar cones and dipped them in white melted chocolate and rolled the sugar cones in pink sugar sprinkles. The next day I made the cakes, a double layer 12" and double layer 9" round cakes in strawberry mix. It took 4 boxes.
I also make Royal Icing flowers, that took some time but saved time while decorating the cake. On the day before her party I was ready to decorate. I stacked the cakes and frosted them, then I stacked the cones and then I added the pink dots around the cake and cones for decoration.
I took mini marshmallows and shook them in a bag with edible pink sprinkles and then lined them around the castle and put them on top of the cones. I used a Hershey's Bar for the door and walk way and lined the door with M&M's and the walk way with Pez.
I made a vine going up the cones as well as the front of the castle and then added the Royal Icing flowers and leaves. I added the princesses and then I was done! Believe it or not this was my first ever cake like this, I usually just do plan rectangle cakes and this was so much fun!
