White Dog Cake

This is a cake I made which was designed by my daughter. She wanted it to look like our little Maltese. It's all buttercream except for the flowers, which are royal.

Thanks. The dog is cake too. I used the mini doll pan for the body, cupcake head, mini cupcake paws that were cut in half, and a mini bundt pan for the rump. The rest is all icing.

Oh, you almost made me cry. Our family dog from when I was growing up passed away this past fall and she was a maltese and looked just like that!! This is incredibly beautiful!!

OMG ... that is too adorable ...we just got a maltese puppy for x-mas ..my kids would go bonkers!!! could you share instructions on how you did this?

sofiasmami, I just used buttercream to glue together the above-mentioned pieces of cake. I had to sculpt the head a little bit & use toothpicks to secure it, but other than that, it's just a big mound of buttercream. I used the Wilton tip #233 for the fur & black tip 12 eyes & nose.
