Winter Wonderland Castle Cake

Cover with Fondant

Roll out white fondant and carefully drape it over each tier, smoothing the sides and trimming excess. Use blue fondant for rooftops, accents, and decorative panels to create contrast and depth.

Create the Towers

Use ice cream cones to form castle towers. Cover them with fondant, shaping the tops smoothly. Attach them to the cake using royal icing or melted chocolate for a secure hold.

Add Snow Details

Pipe royal icing along edges, rooftops, and tower tops to create dripping snow and icicles. This adds dimension and reinforces the winter theme.

Finish the Scene

Decorate with fondant trees, snowmen, animals, or characters as desired. Lightly dust the entire cake with powdered sugar or edible glitter to give it a sparkling, snow-covered effect.
