cakes, then sandwich all the layers together with
the butter icing. Place in the centre of the cake
board. Cut 3cm off the top just above
the filling and set aside. Shape the rest of the

the cubes for the turrets and brush with apricot
jam.

the "sand". Press some crushed biscuits on to the
cake, using a palette knife to get a smooth finish.
