Do you mean the tourets? I used cakes cooked in soup cans for the towers and regular ice cream cones with divits cut out for the turrets. You can see it in my pix profile. Hope this will be of some help.

There are a lot of ways.......some people baked cake in soup cans and then stack them and stick a skewer down through all of them.......some people wrap a paper towel roll in fondant and leave the paper towel roll in there (they don't eat the towers obviously)......and others (this is my favorite idea) wrap plastic wrap around a paper towel roll, then cover it in gumpaste.....allow it to dry overnight, remove the paper towel roll, stand up the gumpaste tower (which is rock hard when it dries, but still edible if you want to eat it) and you can fill it with extra treats, candies, small toys, necklaces, etc.!!!

I'm not really sure what you are asking.....I have several pictures of castle cakes that I saved to my computer.

A little late getting the answer over to you, but I have heard of using stacked cookies that are glued together one on top of the other using royal icing. I plan to try this approach this month for a birthday cake for a 4 year old. Just another idea.

DouDoun,

The pink was mixed into the fondant and then the darker pink looks like it was airbrushed around the accents.
