We had an order to do a giraffe themed cake and ta-dah! Here it is:
MAKING THE GIRAFFE
We made the giraffe out of gumpaste about 2 days before and once it was rock solid, we covered it in yellow fondant (Wilton Buttercup yellow x Red Man yellow). After which, we added the little details!

| If you need to, use something to help support the structure while you work on it. |
 |
| The birthday boy specially requested for the giraffe to be holding a volley ball and hand ball. |

MAKING THE CAKE
This was a blueberry cake with blueberry frosting. To get the recipe for the cake, click here.
The bottom layer was a 10" square cake, and the top was 8". We covered both in yellow fondant and used brown fondant to resemble the giraffe's spots. To finish it off, we added a ribbon around both tiers.
