I just got a call to do a cake for Sunday that I was not prepared for. Customer wants a cake for her granddaughter's birthday that looks like this:

I am not sure how to go about the construction to keep it stable, it seems like it will be top heavy. Any help would be fantastic!

Thanks!!!!

I saw this Corgi dog the other day. Done with the lamb pan. Might be a start.

Thanks for the link. I haven't seen that pan around here anywhere, though. And I have to do this NOW. Ugh. I'm going out in a bit to look around, but I think I'm going to have to construct it and carve it from scratch... I just hope I can do it properly so it's head doesn't fall off when I deliver it. icon_smile.gif

Hi mommy2djb,

I've seen the lamb pan at Michaels.

Also, I would dowel the head to the body so it doesn't roll off.

Edit -- sorry, I think I'm too late with this comment. I would love to see a pic though.
