I am an avid reader here, thought I don't write much. I'm still learning and you guys have been a great help! Now I have to do a castle cake for a birthday and I am kind of stuck as to how to make the towers. I have looked at all the beautiful cakes in galleries and I just can't figure out how the towers are made. Is it cake rounded, pipe or other? I prefer all of my cake to be edible, but am also about as lazy as they come and don't want to play with crumbs. Any help you can give me would be great!

I think a lot of people use paper towel rolls and some bake in soup cans. Do a search in the forums for castle towers or castle cakes.....should pull up some responses.

I used empty pringle potato chip cans.I also used the papertowel rolls but they looked really tall and skinny.The cans are the easiest.PM me if you would like further help!! Check out my galleries also!!

Thanks for all the help! It sound like common sense now, but for the life of me I could not think of a way to do it! All great ideas! Thanks again!
