Summer's Zoo!!!

Summer decided she wanted a zoo cake for her 8th birthday!!!  She picked out all of the Pet Shops she wanted in the zoo and then it was my turn!!!


I baked a cake in a cookie sheet and lightly iced over it.  The outside fence was next, it is graham crackers.  Pretzels are the inside fences.  The pathway is brown sugar!!!  All the pens have blue sugar crystals for their water.  The center of the zoo is a pond with green sugar, a Fruit-by the-Foot in the center and a peacock perched on the pretzels!!!


The monkey cage has a sugar cone to climb on!!!  The artic cage has blue Fruit-by the-Foot under powdered sugar!!!


The Havanna for the leopard is crushed up Life cereal.  The Platypus' cage is blue Fruit-by the-Foot!!!


The panda bears have sugar that I mixed with green food coloring and pretzel sticks as bambo!!!


The entrance is made from Twix!!!


The giraffe and elephant have the crushed up Life as well!!!

Pryce's Bull!!!

Pryce wanted a bull for his cake.  I did my best even with my cake refusing to frost nicely!!!  Pryce was happy with it so that is all that mattered!!!


I baked a 9 inch cake, two cupcakes and a 6 inch cake.  The eyes are opened oreos with M&Ms in the middle.  The nostrils are white chocolate melting chocolate discs.  The horns are sugar cones!!!  Simple and fun!!!
