Pink Castle Cake

Pink Castle Cake on Cake Central

This is a smaller version of the castle cake..The towers are made with pastillage icing and are hollow..I fill these full of sweets..kids love it.. The rest is all sugarpaste and the ivy is royal icing..The grass around the side is coloured coconut

You did a fantastic job on this one, looks like we own the same book : ), i love the idea of the lollies inside the towers.

I love my books..cant be without them..this one is great book..I put whatever sweets the child likes inside them..I think thats why its quite popular

it is a very strong icing which can be rolled out but it sets very hard..so can be used for towers etc anything which needs to be strong..

i think pastillage is just another term for gumpaste....like what you make flowers from..........great castle by the way

It is similar but pastillage is even harder..it dries very quickly and sets rock hard..you must work quickly with it as it does start to skin quickly..but its great for towers and that is freestanding and needs to be strong
