Coolest Monster Mutt Dalmatian Birthday Cake

My son wanted a Monster Mutt Dalmatian Birthday Cake and I thought the Dalmatian would still work with the firetruck theme we were going with. I used two 9×13 sheet cakes. I coated the pan with Crisco shortening and floured them really good. The cakes came out of the pan without sticking.

I froze the cake to help with carving and frosting it before putting the fondant on. This helped a lot so the cake didn’t crumple as I was trying to carve the details. I used marshmallow fondant for the cake and all the decorations. I prepared the fondant the day before and kept it in the fridge overnight. I used icing colors to make the red, black and grey. I used an icing pen to draw on the dogs mouth.

I built a base out of dowel rods and plexiglas and used wheels off of another truck. My son loved his cake and people didn’t even think it was a cake.
