I
love making girly cakes and making a Castle cake was in my wish list since
a long time and I am so happy to finally make one for a little princess. I should
say making this castle cake was not a cake walk at all. This was one cake which
took several hours of hard work and it tested all my patience. Most of the princess cake I saw have cardboard pillars but I wanted the pillars to be edible so making the pillars out of cake was my biggest worry
when I started the work. One thing I
have learnt after this making this cake is that there is no need any fancy cutters or tools for making
cakes. If you look around in your kitchen there
might be something which comes
handy and that how I decided to use my reliable puttu maker for cutting out the pillars for the cake !!
It was a 2 tier
chocolate cake with chocolate buttercream. Pillars were made from cake and top
(cone ) of the pillar is ice cream cone covered in fondant. My plan was to put
a princess Aurora on top of the cake but my online delivery of Princess didn’t come
on time so I had to satisfy with the small Tiara instead. The flags on top is my hubby's work :) He used coloured papers for that and glued them onto a tooth pick.
