YOU WILL NEED: 10" round cake INSTRUCTIONS FOR A PRINCESS CAKE
For this cake I use a 10" round cake torted, filled and iced with buttercream. You will need 4 colors of fondant - light pink, dark pink, a bit of green and white. The fantasy flowers can be made ahead. Using the dark pink fondant, make 6 small ribbon roses , 1 medium and 1 large. With the green fondant make a few leaves to go with the roses. Make small and medium blossoms with the white fondant. Imagine there are 4 corners to this cake. Cut up 1" strips with the pink fondant, 3 per corner for a total of 12 strips. Cut up 5/8" strips, 2 per corner, for a total of 8 strips. Apply to cake forming a cross as in picture. I made the pillow cake following the
instructions from this tutorial
. I used a 6" square cake to carve into a pillow. Light pink fondant was used to cover the cake and dark pink was used with a clay gun to make the twisted ropes and tassels. I used a roller to quilt criss-cross design on top of the cake. Using a brush, paint the pillow with luster dust mixed with a little lemon extract.
So now you have a great princess cake idea, it's time to take care the rest of the party details. Here are all the things you need to make your princess party perfect!
