Recently, I was selected among an exclusive group of bloggers to help spread the word about all the exciting birthday party planning ideas on Betty Crocker´s website, www.BettyCrocker.com. I was given the opportunity to throw an awesome Princess castle cake birthday party for my daughter, Betty Crocker style. I was given VIP coupons for Betty Crocker Cakes and Frosting, a $100 debit card to purchase party decorations, place settings or other groceries I needed for the party, and a flip video camera to take videos of the party courtesy of Betty Crocker and MyBlogSpark.
Of course my daughter wanted a princess party and it had to be pink.Â
So we went to the Betty Crocker website and found the perfect cake, a pink princess castle. The next task was to get stuff for the cake and party supplies. We went for white cake which went well with the pink frosting. I did choose to make my own frosting for the cake instead of using the frosting in the tubs. I am not a fan of the taste of the frosting in the tubs. Then we found the perfect princess plates and napkins along with a banner, princess tiaras, and balloon. I also found some small princess figurines to place around the princess castle cake.
Not only does the Betty Crocker website have all kinds of ideas for birthday cakes, but they have food, games, and activities to go along with each theme. Party planning couldn’t be any easier. I must admit, I always get frustrated when decorating birthday cakes. This time wasn’t different, but the tips from Betty Crocker definitely help relieve some of my frustration. The problem is I am too much of a perfectionist and expect my cake to look magazine perfect.Â
The cake still turned out great, but I still feel it was not good enough.Â
There were also additional tips that I discovered while making the cake that were helpful. When putting my cake layers together, the top was still wobbly. With all the episodes of cake decorating I have seen on the food network, I quickly grabbed a bamboo skewer and inserted it down the center of the cake. This solved the wobbly problem.
I have listed the instructions for the cake below with my changes. Also, I recommend watching the video clip on making the cake on the Betty Crocker website. I am a visual learner and enjoyed watching the clip and used more of what I saw on the clip than the written instructions to make the cake. I also included pictures of the party along with video that I took using the flip camera provided by Betty Crocker and MyBlogSpark. My hubby edited the video and added the text and music. Thanks honey!
I have a giveaway to pass along to one lucky reader. The winner will get a prize pack that includes VIP coupons and the baking tools they would need to recreate the cake I made for the party. To enter, just go to the Betty Crocker website and pick which birthday cake you would like to make. Then tell me which cake you chose in the comment portion of this post. You have until Tuesday January 12 at midnight (MST) to enter. I will announce the winner will be on Wednesday January 13.
Princess Castle Cake
Ingredients
- 2 boxes Betty Crocker® SuperMoist® yellow cake mix (I used white cake)
- Water, vegetable oil and eggs called for on cake mix boxes
- 3 containers (12 oz each) Betty Crocker® Whipped fluffy white frosting (I used this recipe 4 times to get enough frosting)
- Red food color
- Tray or cardboard (18×18 inches), covered with paper or foil (I just used a glass platter)
- 5 ice cream cones with pointed ends
- 1 flat-bottom ice cream cone (I didn’t use this)
- Pink decorating sugar(Found with the sprinkles)
- 5 candy stars(I did find this, i just used other candy)
- 28 sugar cubes
- 4 pink gum balls (I used purple)
- 5 pink sugar wafer cookies
- 1 tube (4.25 oz) Betty Crocker® white decorating icing (I just left a small amount of my homemade frosting aside to use before adding the red food coloring)
- (I also used a bamboo skewer)
Instructions
- Heat oven to 350°F (325°F for dark or nonstick pans). Grease bottoms and sides of 4 (8-inch) square pans with shortening or cooking spray. Make 1 cake mix as directed on box, using water, oil and eggs. Divide batter between 2 pans. Bake 2 pans at a time, following times on cake mix box for 8-inch round pans. Cool 10 minutes; remove from pans to cooling racks. Cool completely, about 30 minutes. Repeat with remaining cake mix. Then freeze the cakes for 30-60 minutes.
- Spoon frosting into large bowl. Stir in enough food color until desired pink color.
- Using serrated knife, cut off domed top from each cake so they will be flat when stacked. On tray, place 1 cake, cut side down; spread 1/3 cup frosting over top. Add second cake, cut side down; spread top with 1/3 cup frosting. Add third cake, cut side down; do not frost.
- Cut fourth cake into quarters. Spread small amount of frosting on bottom of 1 quarter; place frosted side down on top of stacked cakes. Spread top of stacked cake quarter with 1 tablespoon frosting. Place second quarter on top of first quarter; spread top with 1 tablespoon frosting. Add third quarter; do not frost. Cut fourth quarter into quarters to create four 2-inch squares. Spread a small dollop of frosting on the top center of the second tier of cakes. Place one 2-inch piece on the center; spread top with frosting. Top with one more 2-inch piece. (Discard remaining 2 pieces.) Insert skewer down center of cake for stability of layers leaving a small amount poking out of the cake. This will eventually be covered by a ice cream cone.
- To “crumb-coat” cake, spread thin layer of frosting over layered cake to seal in crumbs. Freeze cake 30 to 60 minutes.
- Frost cake with remaining frosting. Place 1 pointed-end cone on upside-down flat-bottom cone for center steeple. Frost stacked cones with pink frosting; roll in pink sugar. Place the stacked cones upside down on the top cake layer. Frost remaining 4 pointed-end cones with frosting; roll in pink sugar. Place 1 upside-down cone on each corner of the first cake layer. Top each cone with a candy star.
7. Place sugar cubes around edges of the first and second layers. Top each of the 4 corner sugar cubes with a gum ball. Attach 2 cookies on one side of first layer to create doors. Cut 2 additional cookies to desired size for windows; place each cookie on opposite sides of doors. Cut remaining cookie in half; place 1 half in center of second layer to create accent window. Pipe on window panes and doorknobs with white icing.

I AM SO EXCITED TO MAKE A CAKE!!! I know that when you think of birthday cakes we usually think of children but I want to make the tractor cake for my husband! He farms and he will absolutely LOVE it and be as excited as any child! Thanks for all your great ideas.
I own the flip ultra and I love it, however having to constantly charge the little battery’s gets annoying…
As always, your post is insightful as well as delightfully written
i love the train cake! my twin boys are celebrating their 2nd birthday in early march! what a fun idea….;)
The flip flops cake or the purse cake.
the dino cake….for sure!
I want to attempt the dino cake. My 6 year old grandson is in love with all things dinosaur and wants to be a palentologist(sp?)
i think the fire truck cake is awesome!
princess cake!! LOVE IT!
With 4 girl birthdays this year and one boy I think I would go with the Panda. My oldest has been researching them on her own lately and would dig a cake like that!
I would love to do the Flip Flops cake for my daughter. We love wearing flip flops, even in the winter. 🙂
My daughter (who will be 5 in July) would be ALL OVER that princess cake. I’m not sure I’m skilled enough to do it, but I’d like to try!
I love the Pirate cake!! I so need to make that for one. So cute.
I’d love to make the flip-flop cake!
I would love to try the guitar cake. It was so cute!
I would love to make the guitar cake for my soon to be nine year old. It was too cute! They do have some really cute ideas on their site.
Thank you for the link! I am excited to make the flip-flops birthday cake for my daughter who not only wears her flip-flops all year (yes, and even to prom!) But collects flip-flop dishes and decorations! This will be the perfect cake for her next birthday!!!
We are doing the pink castle cake as well. I didn’t really have a choice, as my two older daughters saw it and immediately set up a clamor for it. I’m excited and intimidated all at the same time. I also was interested in making the ducky cake. I bake frequently, but sometimes have trouble with assembling cakes. This looks really do-able!
My birthday is actually January 18th so this would be soooooo awesome to win!! I’ll be turning 17=) Now this is such a random pick for me, but I’d ahve to go with the big burger. I always think those cakes look awesome and it’s such a great fake out! It’d be really great to win!!
I love the pirate cake. I’m not sure who I’d make it for, but it was just too cute. Thanks for the fun link.
What a cute cake! If only I had a girl….I would love to try and make the pirate cake for my boys 3 year old birthday.
I have no idea who (or what) I’d make it for, but I love the cute Panda Bear Cake!
The pirate cake would be so much fun to make! Thanks for linking to some great ideas 🙂

Our little guy is turning 1 in February. We have called him a Monkey since before he was born. I’m totally making the ‘Zoo-rrific’ cupcakes. I was going to try one of those ‘character’ cake pans by Wilton, after seeing the video though… well it’s so much easier.

I loved the barnyard cake with the cute farm animal cupcakes, but I’d have to pick the flip flops cake.
I actually made these last year for my daughters birthday and got the idea out of a magazine. Mine were similar, but I crushed graham crackers in a sheet pan and then placed the flip flops on top like it was sand.. 🙂 super cute!!

Your castle cake is adorable! I made the barn cake and animal cupcakes last year for my daughter’s first birthday. They were a huge hit and super easy! I also chose to make my own icing – I really don’t like canned! I’m thinking I might do the zoo animal cupcakes for her this year…but I’d want a cake too, so I would probably use the monkey cupcake as a guide to create a monkey cake. Too cute!

Oh my goodness! There are sooo many great ideas! I had no idea Betty Crocker had all these resources! We’re expecting our 4th child at the end of this month, which also happens to be around the same time as my oldest daughters birthday. She’ll be 7. I told her it was going to be too busy to have a party with her friends, but that we would do a special party at home for her. She would absolutely love the ice-cream cone candy surprise cakes! Thanks for giving the promo!

My 3 year old boy would go crazy over that train cake!
I’ve actually made the dinosaur cake when one of my boys turned 5 this past October. It was easy and super cute. He was so excited and couldn’t wait to show his dad when he got home from work. That evening was crazy and I had put the cake in my cake keeper and moved it to the table as I rushed to make dinner. My husband walks in and asks what my youngest son (3) is doing on the table. I turn around and in horror find he has turned the cake keeper upside down and completely destroyed the cake. Good thing I took pictures just after I completed it that afternoon.

I turn around and in horror find he has turned the cake keeper upside down and completely destroyed the cake. Good thing I took pictures just after I completed it that afternoon.
My son would love the electric guitar cake for is 8th birthday this summer. I can think of a ton of fun ideas for a Rock Star party.

I would love to make the Robot cake for my son Travis. He will be five in June and loves to play robot wars with his dad. It is a game Travis made up. Your daughter’s party looks like it was a grand time, fit for a princess.

I chose the Pirate cake. I have 3 boys who think they are pirates! Love all your food. You cook like crazy girl. I love that you have a SIMPLIFY sign in your house. That’s our family motto this year!
