Please please can anybody tell me how to make the Cobra snake, there is a most WONDERFUL one, but I cannot get mine to stand. My son turns 7 and would love a cobra snake.

I would make the coiled part of his body cake (carved from rounds) and have a dowel coming up from that for his neck/head (secured to your board, of course). Just cover the dowel in RKT and shape appropriately... Hope I'm describing that okay. I did a giraffe cake, in my gallery, with the same structural premise. HTH
