Just one or two points to mention.
As we can clearly establish, I am shit at making cakes. It does not look like the one in the book.
While the children all said "Wow..a castle cake" my girlfriends came in giggling and saying: "wow..a cake shaped like lots of man bits with some lady bits on the top."
I wont put the words on here or lord knows who might get to my blog via google.
As I was making the cake I started to realise that the castle does resemble a certain part of a mans body...on closer inspection it actually looks quite realistic as the weight of the icing meant it looked a bit wrinkly. It really made me giggle making it (or maybe that was the glasses of wine I had while doing it)
I also bought the wrong sized marshmallows so had to just work with what I had. Even though the turrets looked a bit like certain lady bits.
Anyway..its a shining example of how to make a cake NotQuiteSuperMom style.
