Chinese Dragon Cake
This Chinese dragon cake was for a friend of mine's birthday. I've made her a dragon cake every year for the past few years. I made a 6-inch chocolate cake and frosted it with vanilla Swiss meringue buttercream. I covered the cake with light blue fondant. I rolled out a strip of green fondant and cut it into a wave shape. And I wrapped it around the cake. I added some randomly shaped clouds. And rolled out a very long snake shape. I added some texture of scales to the snake. And I wrapped it around the cake and molded a face. Then I added some legs. I cut some triangles. And placed them down the spine of the dragon. Then I started working on the face. I rolled some snakes of red and added some eyebrows, mustache and beard. Then I added some black eyes and white eyebrows, mustache and beard. I'm proud of this cake. It might not be traditional Chinese, but I think you can tell what I was going for. Happy Birthday, Lisa! Watch us make this Chinese dragon cake on YouTube here:...
