    How to Make a Dragon Cake

    I had so much fun creating this sweet buttercream-frosted dragon cake!

    Just as a quick overview, I used a Wilton Wonder Mold pan for the main body of the cake, and the head and neck are formed from a 6" round cake layer. 

    The tip of the dragon's tail and head are from compressed & shaped pre-made rice cereal treats.  

    You can easily modify this dragon cake design to fit whatever size of cake you need!  You could also use this basic design to create a dinosaur cake, with a few modifications of the head and tail.

    My dragon is a cheerful one---but you could create an angry dragon by simply changing  the facial features.  You know I couldn't resist the party hat I gave him!  :0)

    The wings are formed from a circle of gum paste draped over bent floral wire and ruffled with a toothpick.  Not difficult at all but I think they look very realistic!

    I hope that you enjoy the tutorial!  If you try it, we'd love for you to leave a photo in the comments below!
