Mukky Elephant



Yes a mukky elephant is what Darragh asked for today ,he wants this elephant on his dinosaur cake for his birthday party on Saturday,now try telling a 5 year old that elephants & dinos didn't exist together & all you get is a blank stare & the words" Nanny don't be silly ....of course they did" convincing enough for me....lol.
This is my first time ever making a fondant animal so don't slate me,I did try....lol
