This friendly dragon was a hit with my son, Tony at his 2nd Birthday party!

The head was a chocolate cake filled with a light and rich butter-cream. The body was a lemon cake filled with lemon curd butter-cream. Both were then crumb coated with butter-cream and covered with blue marshmallow fondant.

Entire cake is edible with a combination of fondant and gum paste decorations.

This dragon stood almost a foot high and consisted of three tiers. This cake was very time consuming, but was great fun to do for my son transitioning from my baby to my rough and tumble toddler!!
