Giraffe Birthday Cake

This is one of the many cakes I have made recently that I am only just finding time to post on my blog.
I love this cake - the giraffe on it is definately a girl and very posh I think.
It was made for a lady who loves giraffes and sponsors one.

I made a jungle scene to run around the side of the cake.
I do know that giraffes don’t actually live in deep jungles (they would be forever getting their necks stuck in vines) but when making a cake I am happy to use a bit of artistic licence if I think it looks right.

I really enjoyed making this cake because of all the colours, shapes and textures.
I can really go to town with cakes like this and use all those tools that rarely come out but are perfect for the effects I wanted to create on this cake.
It is a bit like getting all of Dexter’s (my little boy) play doh out and just having fun.

Thanks Tanya, I was really pleased with the giraffe - especially the look on her face. She looks like a very posh giraffe
