Thanks so much for all the great pics of cakes. This dinosaur cake I did for my son on his 2nd birthday. He loved dinosaurs and he loved M&M’s. I don’t remember exactly where I found the idea.
I made a sheet cake using 2 cake mixes, that way it would come out extra big so I could even it out. Then I got on the internet and found a simple picture of a dinosaur. I printed it out, cut it out, then laid it on top of the cake. I took a toothpick and traced around him.
Then I filled in the dino with green icing. I used blue on the outside cause that is his favorite color. He had a ball helping me sort out the M&M’s for the cake. I even let him put some on.
Then a dot for the eye on the last M&M, a little bit of decoration, add the happy birthday and the name and some candles and you are done! This was very easy and all the little boys loved it.
Hi, Do you remember what site you found the template of the dinosaur on? This is exactly what I want to do for my g-sons 3rd b-day. Thank you for your help.
