Shawna's Sandcastle
I used a crusting buttercream to create a marbled fondant look on the base of the cake. White chocolate seashells, rice paper pinwheels. The sandcastle was baked in a shaped Bundt pan, I glazed it with apricot preserves and sprinkled it with superfine sugar to make it sparkle. I have another version in rolled fondant I will post later. I was pleased they came out so similar!
OMG, I LOVE THIS CAKE! I've been dying to get that pan. What size cake did you use under the castle?
I'm pretty sure it was 14" - when you use this pan you have to use the spray with flour - if you don't you end up with a sandcastle that looks like half was washed away by the ocean!
What a unique and novel cake! I
What a unique and novel cake! I love it!
