Dinosaur Cake with Rice crispy treats- Torta de dinosaurio con cereal



This was an easy dinosaur to make, first I needed to make the skeleton with strong wire, wrap it with tin foil   once is done, shape the dinosaur with rice crispy, try to make slim, and decorate with sugar paste, fondant or chocolate paste.
I decorate it with white sugar paste and after I painted, the chocolate cake was the mud,my son was thrilled he couldn't stop hugging me and all the time he was telling "you are the best mum" I think this was the best job I have done it.


we told him to bite this was he's dinosaur, now he could eat it,I can tell you that was too much sugar, any way was excitement  vs sugar.I could have done it better but here in Uk is impossible to find materials for cakes unless you work in those kind of business where you can have the tools to use. 

Dinosaur Piñata (piñata de Dinosaurio)



Here's my son's Hatching Dinosaur Piñata,he loved dinosaurs and he asked me if I could do one for him,we have lot of fun gluing the paper with my little toddler and my son glue the tissue to the piñata, he was really proud.
