Ok, I'm stuck. I'm trying to come up with the perfect cake for my twins' 1st birthday. I'd LOVE to do a jungle theme cake, but can't find any sort of video or tutorial that shows how to make the animals (even on You Tube!). So now, I'm playing around with the idea of doing a farm cake instead, but it seem more boyish. I have a girl & a boy. Any ideas?! Thanks!

All I can add is if you search for how to make sculpey/primo animals you should find a few jungle animal videos out there!

They may be a little young to know who Dora and Diego are, but I did a jungle cake. I used toy animals and cake top - If you've got the skills, you could always make them yourself. HTH thumbs_up.gif

Thanks! I've looked up tons of pics as well, but they don't seem to help me really. Banba, I also looked up what you told me to look up & still didn't find much in the jungle animal area. Thank you all icon_wink.gif

I've got a jungle cake in my photos. It's a fbct, and I get the sense you are looking for more of a 3D animal. But this is just another alternative.
