Coolest Pink Princess Castle Cake

I made this Pink Princess Castle Cake for a friend’s daughter’s 4th birthday.

The cake is a 10inch Madeira cake iced with regal ice which was then painted with pink and yellow colour. The big towers are regal ice molded round disposable cups for quickness but I have made the cake by cooking towers in old cans and then iced. The icing around the towers was white in which I mixed a bit of pink to give a mottled affect.

The gate is regal ice again which was left for 24 hours to dry and then decorated with gold balls. On top of the turrets I have sprinkled gold dust and round the edge of the cake is more royal icing coloured mottled pink for rocks. Or you could pipe around the edge.
