Thanks!

Thanks for all the great comments about the pink castle cake. Yes, it does (or would) feed an army. We're still eating on it, and there's no way we're going to finish it. I used 3 cake mixes. 2 square layers, 2 smaller round layers, an even smaller round layer for the top. 2 cupcakes in the front (I was going to do two in the back too, but I ran out of icing). Sugar ice cream cones covered with a thin layer of icing and pink sugar. The icing is your typical buttercream frosting variety. I made 2 batches (so two full pounds of powdered sugar and 1 pound of butter). I used the Wilton colors. I forgot to get candy for the castellations, so I used pink jelly beans. Mary Margaret herself decorated the front door with purple. It had a bit of a leaning problem, so I used straws to hold the layers together. Now that I've done it once, I'm looking forward to doing it again next year (because I think I'll be required to). It would make a great party cake since it's so huge.
