This Princess Castle Cake required 9 boxes of cake mix and 3 days to complete. It is the biggest and best cake I have done to date. I do suggest not doing this cake if it is going to be in the heat as my moat ended up being a river.
Overall it was a great cake and everyone around liked it and told me I outdid myself. The towers were made from ice cream cones. The magic carpet was made from rolled fondant. The carriage was made from chocolate.
Everything on the cake was edible except the characters. We raided the child’s toy box to get them. I got most of the ideas from this website and put my own creativity to it. I do suggest that if you are going to do this cake you use dowel rods in the middle to stabilize it or it might just fall on you.
What you can’t see in this picture is Cinderella in the carriage. The bushes are made out of miniature cupcakes and the leaves are just piped with a writing tip. You also need lots of icing. I bought 2 4.5 lbs tubs of decorator icing and used all but 1/2 the second tub. The reins for the unicorns were made from Twizzlers pull and peel, the moat was made from 6 packs of blue jello made with the Jigglers recipe and subtracted 1/2 cup of water. The fish in the moat were Swedish fish candy.
That is a huge cake and lots of little cakes…no wonder everyone liked it..it’s fantastic.
