Description:
     Wade and I made this cake for Blake Neubert's He-man themed, 30th birthday. This was created over a three day period and even experienced some transportation issues. We drove it from from Denver to Fort Collins with a dog in the car. This was my first time making fondant that does not use gelatin. It turned out a little greasy and did not roll out well. It ended up having a good stone look for the castle, but I will not be using the recipe again. It was 4 layers tall with many small details (like the pretzel sticks we used for the door). It was a fun project and the first major cake Wade and I took on together.
