My Experience Making A Dragon Cake

Recently, I decided to challenge myself and make a dragon cake for my daughter’s birthday. It was a huge hit and everyone loved it. In this article, I will share my experience and provide a step-by-step guide on how to make a dragon cake that will impress your guests.

How to Make Dragon Cake

Ingredients:

2 boxes of cake mix (flavor of your choice)
1 tub of frosting (color of your choice)
Fondant (color of your choice)
Food coloring
Candy eyes
Dragon cake topper

Steps:

Bake two round cakes according to the instructions on the box.
Let the cakes cool completely before cutting one of the cakes in half. This will create the wings for the dragon.
Place the whole cake on the serving platter and frost it with your chosen frosting.
Place the two halves of the cut cake on either side of the whole cake to create the wings. Frost the wings with the same frosting.
Roll out the fondant and use food coloring to create the desired color for the dragon’s body. Cover the cake with the fondant.
Use fondant to create the dragon’s head, tail, and legs. Attach these to the body using toothpicks.
Add candy eyes and a dragon cake topper for the finishing touches.
