Dinosaurs...GRrrrr!



Shreeman has been teaching all of us about dinosaurs since he was 2 so I had ample time to think up a special cake for him.... At first I wanted to do the characters from Land Before Time as it is his all time favourite DVD but I decided today that I wanted him to be part of the cake. And believe me he can recreate the growl of a T-rex to the tee so this is him imitating it *heehee*



Since this is my first dinosaur (minus Barney!) it took me 1 hour to complete this T-rex.

The most time consuming part were his teeth.....rolled each and everyone of it individually, then the mucous membranes and the tongue. Bear in mind my amazing helpers are no more so I am all alone here in Singapore *boohoo*


Brontosaurus was next. He was easier.

Fondant Shreeman was even easier and I must say he actually looks like the birthday boy!



Dino footprints on the side...




Pteradactyl..... don't be afraid to use colouring like paint with a brush to give this 3D effect on the dinosaurs.


The good thing about dinosaurs is you can never go wrong...do whatever you like, mould them, shape them just the way you like them and no one can correct you. :)
