I need some help. I never have made a fondant dog before and I have a request to make two of them the person buying cake has chocolate labs for dogs and wants them on cake. HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have no idea of even how to make one. Any direction or advise would be super. Thanks in advance for all the help. Love everyone here.

anyone out there have directions or picture .

have you tried doing a search. How big is the cake? Ace of Cakes did one a while back but he had plywood going and so on. A lot of his dog was made of rice krispie treats also. Not sure if that helps or if I just confused you more...sorry.

I did try to search and did not come up with anything. The dogs are only going to be very little on top of cake. probably about 2 or 3 inches long. nothing big. I will try to search again. Otherwise I am just going to tell her that I can not do this as I don't know how

Not sure if this helps but I believe I've seen a "sculpty" mold for dogs at Michaels or AC Moore. It may work for a lab. Good luck!

Hi Amy,
Here are some pics of dogs I've made if you need other ideas. One is a chinese crested, the other a pit bull.
The way I make it is similar to the instructions in that photo from CC. Plus I use wire for support.
I would suggest using modelling paste (fondant:gumpaste 50:50) instead of fondant, as it dries firmer.

Happy modelling and show us your finished doggies!

redred that is adorable. I hope I can make mine as cute. Thanks for the suggestion on the fondant.
