This cake was for a baby shower that had a storybook theme. I wanted it to look like the castle was popping right out of the pages of a book. The "page" was hand painted with gel coloring. The cake is covered in buttercream and has fondant accents. The baby was hand sculpted from fondant. I was so pleased with the way he came out... he sort of looks like the New Year's baby. :) The castle is actually cake dummies and I also used the Wilton castle kit for the towers.
