I think it looks awesome, even if it did lean a little. Your birthday girl is so beautiful!

Your cake is beautiful – I’ll have to show it to my daughter (17) who loves to be creative with cakes.
Your birthday girl is so adorable.

I love this cake. I say the sliding things add a cartoon quality that’s essential to all fairy princess castles. I admit when I first saw the spires I thought it was glitter even though logic tells me its sugar.

I think it helps to toss the frosted cake in the freezer for 15 minutes or so before adding decorations. I am not really experienced though, so it might be mostly psychological.

I made a castle cake for my daughter also this year, and it did the same thing, sank to one side. Must be something about these castles that think they have to be leaning towers instead. Thanks for the inspiration.

How sweet.

I made that same cake last year and had the same sliding problem. My daughter thought it was pefect.

My girl can’t decide if she wants the Barbie cake or the castle cake for her birthday. She has two months to figure it out.

Thanks for the inspiration! Amy

Great cake. My kids talk about what they want their b-day cakes to look like way in advance. I will have to show this one to my youngest.
Blessings,
