Stephanie’s Cakes

I was thrilled with how this castle cake turned out, although the photos don’t quite do it justice! Made for a three-year-old’s party, it got dolled up with a few Disney princess figurines once it arrived at the party.

Construction notes: The towers are made from rice krispy treats, which were a great success. I had my worries about them staying solid (dreams of melting marshmellow and swiftly tilting towers), but they remained upright the whole time, especially with a nice coating of buttercream to stick them to the cake. The pointed roofs are ice cream cones with a coating of buttercream. I’d say it turned out fit for a princess!
