This cake was done for my daughters First Birthday. I the supports all planned out (hollow colomns to hold up the torso, and a wooden dowel through the entire cake, but once I stated putting the fondant on the head, it started falling forward. Had to get my husband to cut through the cake bases and slip 4 more dowels to support the head without moving the cake! It was stressful, but in the end - worth it!! It was as big as my daughter, and weighed 15lbs. The smaller lamb was made using leftover cake from the first lamb.
