Sunday Sweets: 11 Magical Castle Cakes
December 6, 2015 Whether they're made of sand, stone, or ice, there's just something magical about castles. So no wonder castle cakes are big - often literally! - these days.
From full-grown elegance:

I love the metallic shimmer on those turrets.
Anyone planning a Harry Potter movie marathon?
If so, then do I have the cake for you:

In fact, I think this next one might be Hogwarts, too:

Or Disney World's!

Sometimes castle cakes can look a little drab, but those warm golds and purple/fuchsias are perfection.
And finally, the grandest castle cake I've ever seen, served just two months ago at a wedding in Jakarta:

and this is how you make non-phallic castle cakes ;-)
So pretty :D
WOW, those are gorgeous! I want to move into the second-last one. Except then I'd probably eat myself out of house and home.
Fun to see a Mike the Knight cake up there too! I vividly remember the year in which my son wanted to be Mike the Knight when he grew up. I'm not totally sorry to be past those days, because Mike is a little twit on the show and painful to watch, but I do miss the "knights and castles" phase in general. It's all Minecraft and Pokémon around here now - still awesome, but not as much swashbuckling. :)
Wow!
Almost a dozen castle cakes and not an inappropriate tower in sight….IT CAN BE DONE!!!!!
The light-up cake is actually making me think of The Goblin Emperor. I'm sure it's not, but something about it is pinging that book.
My jaw literally dropped as I scrolled to the last cake!! Holy Smokes!!! WOW!
Looks like the second one may be Mike the Knight.
For some of these I just don't understand which parts are actually CAKE...
I would like to see a picture of these cakes cut up and served. I cannot imagine how you even begin to cut into such beautiful works of art. And then eat it! It's beyond my imagination.
I can't get over that last castle! So elegant and detailed!
And THAT is how you do stairs on a wedding cake. Bravo!
Wow. That last one looks like it's pretty big, too?
I love that a girl named Imogen got that beautiful castle for her 18th birthday!
