A friend asked me to make a pillow cake with a crown on it for her daughter's 18th birthday. To make a long story short I wanted to make a tiara instead of purchasing a crown, but I have no idea how to make one. Can anyone out there give me some instructions? Thanks in advance

Welcome to Cake Central! Instructions are right on the homepage....scroll down until you see "How to make a royal icing tiara". I've used the instructions, they are great! Good luck!

To start with, here is where you will find templates for some tiaras:

And....you might try to PM some of the people who've made tiara's. Everyone here is so helpful, you should get some good tips and tricks.

Thank you so much for the information on the templates for the tiara. I will post a picture of the cake.
