This is the “main” cake for my Brother-In-Law’s “Luau” engagement party.  It’s red-velvet with cream-cheese inside and butter-cream outside.  The scorch marks are air-brushed.  Ears & tail are fondant.  Body is four layers of cake, with legs carved out.  Neck and head are 9” round and a doll pan.  This was our first time to make a cake of this size.  Unfortunately the skin that formed on the icing overnight cracked as the cake jiggled during transit. (Learned about need for internal support. ;-D)
