Yasmine's Official B'Day Cake (Princess Castle Cake)

Like I promised, here I am posting Yasmine's Official 2010 Princess Castle Cake. Assembling the cake was a bit challenging, but I made it.
All the decorations apart from the kit were 100% home made marzipan, given we are an almond-lover family; I sandwiched the cake with my favorite White Chocolate Mousse, that I discovered chez Hanaa and loved when I tasted the Chocolate Apricot Roll with Lacquer Glaze, another HCB favorite.
The white outer frosting layer is made of whipping cream, cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla & almond flavoring. the cake itself is a three 15'' by 11'' carrot cake, adapted from Sweet Melissa's book.
Enjoy pictures..!!

GORGEOUS!!! All that work really paid off. Your daughter is lucky to have such a talented mom! My daughter's birthday party was last weekend. I'll be posting pictures of the cake tomorrow. :)

I like the new look of your blog!!! I'm sure you're not surprised I like because you know the color brown is my favorite color :o) I like that it has a world map on top. After all, you are a pretty well-traveled individual :o) Looking forward to seeing more posts from you after your vacation, iA.

Love,
