Castle cakes can be used for girls or boys. There is a pan available that can be used to make a sand castle. With the right kind of decorating it could be used to make a fancy castle that any princess would be proud to call home.
To make a castle with round towers and battlements you could use soda cans to make the towers and cut the parapets into them. My daughter found a pattern for a wooden castle and adapted that to make a fairy tale castle for her daughter.
She later found a castle cake pattern on line. The same castle could be used for a boy if you used toy knights and horse for decorations. You could use a graham cracker for the drawbridge and licorice whips for the chains.
