GRUFFALO

{The Gruffalo is a children's book by writer and playwright Julia Donaldson, illustrated by Axel Scheffler, that tells the story of a mouse, the protagonist of the book, taking a walk in the woods. Wikipedia}

I have been very lucky enough to be the creator of birthday cakes for twin brothers Max and Dan. Their Mum, Sara is a wonderful lady who is another FANTASTIC client of mine. She trusts my work and gives me guidelines and let's me create wonderful cakes for her boys.

This year I was given the task of "GRUFFALO" with a mental note that the Gruffalo has to have purple spikes on his back as that will be the first thing the boys will check to make sure it is him... {Little people are very smart these days and honest, so I could only imagine what they would say if I had forgotten them EEKK hahaha}

Here is what I created...

FONDANT SNAKE waiting for his eyes
Standard Single Tier
Chocolate Brownie layered in Dark Chocolate Ganache
White icing and cake board airbrushed
Fondant decorations and figurines 

FONDANT Mushrooms, stones and logs
