Baking Project

2009 started in a good way for me. Completed the cake below for adorable little Tisha. Thank you Shilme for the order.

The little princess, see the magic wand ?

Making a castle cake is not easy, I have to prepare pastillage, fondant and also royal icing. All three made from icing sugar.. Pastillage is used for the pillars, fondant to cover the cake, royal icing to glue the pieces together.

This is actually my first castle cake… been wanting to make one forever. So I took the challenge and am so glad it came out ok. Well, the castle is far from perfect. The tallest tower keep leaning backwards. Transporting the cake is also a risk.. the safest would be to assemble the towers at the party place. Downside is, you have to bring with you the tools, royal icing etc to finish the cake there.

Any questions, please join the Bakingproject Yahoo group and post your questions there… Have a good year, everybody .
