Here is the puppy I was so worried I wouldn't be able to do.Considering what an awfull time I had with that dang tree trunk.I think this one was a breeze to make.What do you think?

Wow! This is one of the best I've seen! I love the variations in the color of the fur!

That is so cute! I love the idea of the bed.

I think he is adorable!!! Great work! Did you cut some cake out for the bed? I have a sketch of a bed like that with kittens in it that I made but I haven't made the cake come to life yet lol, so any tips?

adorable! great cake!

absolutely fantastic! Can you share how you did it?

OMG...I Love it!! My daughter would go nuts over this cake!! I would love the directions if you are willing to share them! Wonderful work!!


 

That is amazing! Nice job

omg. is the whole dog cake? maybe you could send me directions in a pm, that is just too cool.

That is a really cute cake. You did a fabulous job!!! K'ly

What an adorable cake! If you're sharing the directions I'd love to have them as well. TIA

Adorable. What a great job.

Thank you guys.Here is how I did it.
I baked a 12" x 3" round cake for the basket and just dag the hole in the center,leaving about 1" on the edges.After that I roled the 16" round fondant piece and placed it on the top of the whole thing.Easy enough.Now here comes the dog part.
What I did for the dog is;
I used "Easter Bunny" cake pan.Baked two halves sepearate(maybe you can baked it in one piece, I never found the way to do it).
Than put the two pieces together with icing and cut the ears off.Then I used fondant to build the nose up,and attached a snout on at this time.
If you have a picture the dog you are trying to make it would be helpfull for this next step.Use a grass tip and put the hair(fur) on the dog in the same direction as the picture of the real dog.Let the icing crust a little bid and then attach a fondant earson the dog.After the ears had been attached cover with a fur.Let it all dry really good.And then I used an airbrush($55.00 from wal-mart) with some brown color and just airbrush it in the areas that appear dark on the real dog from your picture.
And o yes, the eyes.I made the eyes with brown fondant and a little dab of black in the center,than attached them to the face and brushed over with dark corn sryup,before the fur went on.And then ofcourse you want to attach the tail.I think that is it,I don't think I missed anything.

Awesome cake!

Excellent work!

wow..that is excellent and thanks so much for the instructions!!!

The puppy looks too real to be edible! Great job!
