My five year son wanted a dragon birthday cake so this Dragon birthday cake is what I came up with. I started by baking two marble cake mixes in bundt cakes pans to get the round shape as the cake needed to be low and portable for traveling. I cut the two bundt cakes into the dragon body. Then I sliced in half horizontally so we can have a two layer cake with frosting in the middle of the layers.
After that I frosted cake with a homemade frosting (we don’t care for fondant so all my cakes have real frosting and candy as deco). The scale on top is a tootsie roll that I melted and shaped into. The teeth and eyes are white almond chocolate that I melted and shaped.
The fire is shaped airheads. The wings are fruit roll ups that I held up with skewers. Around the dragon is chocolate coins and candy rocks. My son really liked it so I think it was a success.
