I expected it to be hard--which is why I started it so early, so that I'd still have time to run to the grocery store bakery and arrange a cake for him if I needed to!! It just turned out to be so easy and fast! I'm still super shocked I got done so quickly, it just all fell into place.
I was going to cut out spikes individually, but saw the maple leaf cookie cutter in the store, and decided I'd use that! I just cut out fondant leaves and sliced the bottoms off so I was left with the pointy top!! Looked like cool spikes to me in my head; I'm just glad it worked!
I'm all about taking the short way!
My dinosaur is complete!
Carter's face was PRICELESS. I kept calling to him in the other room asking him details about what a stegosaurus looks like. I wish I'd gotten a picture of his face. He loves it! One red stegosaurus cake, with yellow claws and spikes and green eyes: complete!! ...This was probably the easiest cake I've ever done. In all, it took about 1.5 hours to do. I started it, then took a nap, then we went to dinner to celebrate his birthday (Red Robin--love that place! The kids can scream and no one cares!) Then got back and finished it. Anyway. Yay, now I have time to clean my house before tomorrow morning haha

That was the easiest cake you've ever done? It looks amazing!!! Good job!
