I made a castle for my neice a few years back - using the swiss roll method. I got some fondant icing from Tescos and you can get edible glitter and stuff cheap as chips off Ebay. There is a cake store up upper Newtownards Road that i buy stuff from now which is great, but not the cheapest. I'd definitely recommend ebay if you have the time for delivery.
Good luck and don't forget the picture! ; )0 -
You're setting yourself up there! At 1 she won't even know it's her birthday. If you carry on at this rate she'll want something impossible by the time she's 3!!!I was born too late, into a world that doesn't care
Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair0 -
:rotfl:hmmmm good point iamana1ias in that case she's getting a cupcake with a candle!!
I will give my castle a go though it'll be a project for me!! and I have a strange feeling by the time I'm finished I'll certainly not be attempting it again!!Money Saving Mummy to three little monkeys:hello::j :hello:It might not make sense right now but everything happens for a reason and down the line you always see why0 -
Ah go on, you will, you will!
You then have to do " the Hedgehog" The "Butterfly" , "Humpty Dumpty" and LOADS more I've forgotten at present

butterfly is easy enough, poundland has butterfly shaped silicone cake 'tins' I did one for my sister last year, 2 butterfly cakes turned sideways and put together to make a big butterfly if that makes sense! and frosting. She wants a pink castle this year...she will b 21!0

I've got a photo but haven't got a clue how to post it into this can anyone help??Money Saving Mummy to three little monkeys:hello::j :hello:It might not make sense right now but everything happens for a reason and down the line you always see why0 -
There should be an insert image icon at the top of the quick reply screen. having looked at this is requires the html code so you are prob best to load it into a photo sharing site like photobucket or photobox. That will then give you the code.0
