have saved myself a lot of hassle with dd1's b'day this year by having party at a children's centre where they do all the organising of dancing, games etc, but it wouldn't be the same unless i was running myself ragged and demented trying to get some hairbrain project going at the same time.... so i've decided to make her a cake!!
i'm going to buy the base but i want to decorate it myself with a fairy castle. i'm quite 'arty' and as long as i have a design to work from i'm sure i'll be ok (famous last words). but i need to know :
how far in advance do i have to make it?
if i make the castle bit out of that doughy icing stuff you can model with will it collapse/melt if i make it too far in advance?
does anyone have any links to pics of similar cakes from websites i could look at?
Do you mkake the turrets out of solid icing or do you wrap them round bits of cyclindrical cake too??!
[am i mental even wanting to try this?]
