Bake for approx. 25 mins. in the centre of an oven preheated to 200°C. Remove from the oven, allow to cool a little, remove from the tin, leave to cool completely on a rack.
To cut out the castle
Cut wide strips (approx. 7 cm) all the way around for the walls. Trim the strips to the right length. Cut a door out of one of the longer strips, set aside. Cut battlements out of the outer edges.
To assemble the castle
Place the base on a cake plate. Attach the walls to the cake with decorating icing. To make the well, cut out small squares from the cut-offs, attach to the cake. Create the path to the castle using the remaining cut-offs.
To decorate
Attach the almonds and gummy bears to the castle using decorating icing. Use drawing paper and a wooden skewer to make a flag, insert into the castle.
