No, that’s not a real cake. But, for Magic Kingdom’s 25th Anniversary, Imagineers made the castle look like one. It took 400 gallons of pink paint and 26 candles ranging from 20-40 feet in height, along with other decorations were massive gumdrops, lifesavers, lollipops, and other goodies to manage this feat. The castle stayed like this for 15 months, from 1996 to 1998. Awesome, right? Too bad you couldn’t actually eat a cake…
