This week features the Wilton's castle set. Basically, you bake and stack a two-tier cake (make sure to follow proper stacking instructions - i.e., use dowels and plates), and then you attach the towers. The castle looks pretty amazing when finished, but it can be tricky frosting and, for lack of a better term, sprinkling the sparkles onto the cake. The first cake features pink and the second purple (stay tuned for Cinderella's castle in blue). Enjoy!
I need to look for a close up of the "Smash Me" cake. It is once again made from the small bear pan, and this time it's actually a bear! The little white bear is dressed as a princess. I cut the crown from Styrofoam (once again, be sure to remove the piece before feeding it to the child) and her dress is made out of buttercream frosting (use the rose tip to create ruffles of fabric.
Not all princesses are the same, so no two princesses can have exactly the same cake! Here we have the castle done in purple and the "Smash Me" bear is brown. Also, instead of the same princess dress, this little bear likes to be surrounded by flowers.
I still have lots more cakes to share. Till next time confectionery lovers!
