A little while ago, a friend asked me to make a cake for her "soon to be" 3 year old's birthday. Josh wanted a green dinosaur like that one (pointing to an elaborate cake in a photo). It's a Stegosaurus apparently, and was green and had huge orange spikes in its back. Well you can't disappoint a little boy with huge ideas can you? So here is my attempt at his dream. It is his birthday party tomorrow, I hope he likes it!
The cut out dinosaur
I decided to crumb coat, as it there was quite a few crumbs 
1/3 of the way through the star piping 
The piping is finished : )
Spikes are in place
The finished cake
The details:
Cake - Butter cake
Frosting - Vienna Butter Cream
Spikes - Pastillage
Eyes & Toes - Dark Choc Chips
Ground Cover - Toasted Shredded Coconut
