INSTRUCTIONS:
- Start by making the details for each princess accessory by creating royal icing. For Belle’s rose, use a premade sugar rose.
- Add powdered sugar, meringue powder, vanilla extract, and water into the bowl of a stand mixer with the whisk attachment. Start mixing on low until incorporated and then beat on medium-high until stiff peaks form (around 5 minutes).
- Separate the royal icing into smaller bowls and dye each different colors (red, white, purple, pink, yellow, and gray).
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Then, in a smaller bowl, whisk together the egg, milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir together until no flour clumps remain and all ingredients are combined. Try not to over mix the batter.
- Pipe the batter into the donut cavities using a piping bag, filling 3/4 of the way. Bake in the oven for 10-12 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and allow them to cool in the pan before inverting them onto a wire rack.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and heavy cream. If the icing is toothick add additional cream, about 1 tsp at a time, until the desired consistency has been reached.
- Divide the icing into 5 smaller bowls and dye them accordingly to the princess color schemes.
- Dip the donuts into the icing on one side, lift, and let excess icing drip off. Place into the refrigerator to set for about 10 minutes.
- For Rapunzel’s hair, add the yellow icing from earlier into a piping bag (fitted with a #18 tip if you have it).
- For Ariel, pipe scales using the same method above but with dark teal icing (and #2 tip if available). Set both aside and let them dry for about 1 hour.
- Carefully remove the Disney Princess royal icing pieces you made earlier from the parchment paper and attach to the sides of the donuts using a small amount of white icing. Add some sanding sugar to the Cinderella donut for some extra sparkle.
- Carefully stack each donut on top of one another to form the Disney Princess donut tower.
Enjoy your disney princess donut tower!
