I needed to sleep. But I must say, the icing took far more than four packets of icing sugar. It was closer to ten. Adding the caramel filling, while tasty, was a gross gross project. It glopped out of the cans in can shape, but was easy to spread. Karen, my dear sister-in-law threaded chopped bits of mint leaves onto wire then wound them around the towers. My brother Aaron made the pretty flags. Obviously, kudos to Ryan for spending four hours mixing, kneading and rolling icing. He put in a mammoth effort!
