I ran out of icing so I couldn't get the legs right but other than that it turned out ok. I heard that it tasted great.
I made this cake a few weeks ago. I didn' use a mold...I cut it freehand.I didn't shape it at the bottom much because I thought it may fall over from being so heavy.

The sprinkles on top were mini M&M's.Everything else was made from fondant. I enjoyed making it.
I made this Debbie Brown cake for my birthday just for something different. I had a few problems with it.I made the carrots the day before I made the cake,so when I put it altogether a lot of the greenery broke off.I ran out of carrots near the top of the cake.Bugs's arm was too heavy and broke in half so I had to fix it as best as I could,then the hand with the carrot in it fell off hahaha. I squashed his ears a bit.oh boy... anyway I got it altogether to take some photos. It was a scratch red velvet cake with vanilla buttercream. Everyone liked it. tasted nice.
This is a fruitcake that I made a several weeks ago. The icing and decorations are all fondant.I didnt use marzipan because no one likes it.
