I am going to take you to one of the
few ice castles in the United States
and since you are going to be royalty
for a day I made you some royal slippers
and a crown to celebrate.
There are only three ice castles in
the United States and we have one right
here in Utah just up the canyon in Midway.
The ice castles are made by hand and contain
over 20,000,000 pounds of ice.
We went on a warm sunny day
with my favorite royalty,
Hannah, Miss Utah County
and Kylie, Little Miss Utah County.
They dressed in their icy blue
and capes and naturally
they were mistaken for Elsa
our favorite queen from Frozen,
Disney's new movie.
Who happened to just come along
with us for the photo shoot
and we also found
our favorite snowman, Olaf there!
Actually, we brought that Olaf with
us for baby sister to hold but we
did find this huge Olaf there.
It was a beautiful sunny day there
and the majesty of the ice is
just unimaginable.
There are arches and tunnels
and mazes to explore.
You don't want to wear your princess
slippers as you are walking
through quite a bit of snow but
I just had to make some
royal cookies to celebrate our adventure.
For complete instructions on
making cookies like these
How appropriate as they use
ROYAL ICING!
I made these and brought them over
to Hannah as she had come down
with a cold.
These ice figures remind you of
the top of a castle.
It was definitely a fun event to go
to, a fabulous place to take
photos, and it was really fun to
be there with ROYALTY!
Hannah and her mother had
given me both of these
cookie cutters so it was
fun to give a little something back.
