Homemade Lion Birthday Cake

I made this Lion Birthday Cake using a 10 inch pan, marble cake (using 2 cake mixes by mixing a yellow cake and chocolate fudge cake), chocolate canned icing, and decorators icing (made from Wilton recipe). I saw some of the cakes on here and molded a few of the designs together.

I used about 2 cans of chocolate icing. Please refrigerate 1 can, for the mane of hair, and use the other to ice the cake. I used a 18 star tip for the mane of hair, working from the face of the lion out. I used lighted tinted Wilton buttercream icing for the face with a 16 star tip. I used Wilton Black frosting for the eyes and whiskers.

Probably the easiest cake I've ever decorated, and the cutest!
