Cake for a party...
Here's a sandcastle cake I made for a last day party at Yousuf's preschool. I got the idea from Family Fun magazine. Don't you just love kid's cakes? They make me smile.
Here is a link for the how to. It was really easy. I made mine larger than theirs because I was feeding 30 kids... So I did a 9x13 and 2 8x8 cakes. One mistake I would be careful not to repeat is that I didn't apply the "sand" quickly enough and parts of the icing had dried already so it didn't stick.
I think it's a great looking cake! :) great job!!!
