Thanks, love! I was really scared he’d end up looking like Yoda, and I still think I could’ve done better, but most importantly, the client [and recipient] was happy with it!
I totally agree with E mister. Figurines of little boys/gals are easy. Such characters are a challenge. When I 1st made Mickey Mouse, it ended up looking like a dog! :p
Whenever I make figurines of cartoon characters, I would show it to my mom 1st and make her guess as to which cartoon character it is. If she can give a affirmative answer, Its a case of sugar-crafting gone wrong I guess! Haha
I know what you mean. The best part was when I was working on this, my 8yo niece was around (and you know how kids are super blatantly honest!), so when she immediately recognised it, I literally went ‘Phew!’ Also it helped that she said stuff like ‘Don’t make him so scary, it’s for a 2yo!’, so it really helped in moulding his features
That is Awesome!! My Twins’ B-day is on Sun and I have been a wreck trying to come up with a cake…I’m thinking Elmo..?
I dunno – very uninspired these days.
THAT is an AMAZING cake! My friend’s last name happens to be “Shreck” (granted, the spelling is a bit different), but he would enjoy this. What a great thing. I wouldn’t want to eat it! I hope that it was delicious. Thank you for sharing your photo, and have a great Wordless Wednesday.
Oh wow, there’s a real-life Shrek (of sorts )! Hehe, thanks for dropping by, Dawn. I did wonder how they were gonna eat it, but the client said the birthday boy and his brother had a hard time cutting Shrek where it would hurt the least, so I guess it’s a happy ending
your cakes looks awesome! my boyfriend’s 21st birthday is coming up in january 2011 and i was wondering if you would do a cake for him? I would appreciate it alot!
let me know if you are able to do it(: i’ll be willing to pay of course, thanks a million! you can reach me at nicolenwn@gmail.com

Fantastic job as usual, luv!

Elmo sounds exciting! I’m pretty sure they’re gonna enjoy the cake regardless of the theme
Best of luck!

Great job, dearie! Shrek would be proud!
Ahhhh! Soooo cute! I bet ‘Ammar was a very happy bday boy
Ju: Haha, I’m pretty sure he’d find himself better-looking than that
jean-marie: Hehe, I sure hope he was!
Wow, amazing! Can I have his nose? Happy WW!
Aw this is adorable! I bet the little boy was just thrilled!
Betherann: Hehe, I was tempted by his nose too
Happy WW! Thanks for dropping by 
thecoffeesnob: Thanks, babe! I sure hope he was

Thank you!
WOW. That. Is. Awesome. It looks better then anything I have ever seen on TV or in a store. You rock!!
Coming from you, Amanda, that’s an honour!
I’m not going to lie – that startled me, quite a bit. But wonderful job
Wei-Wei
Haha, it scared quite a no. of us too! We kept wondering why a 2yo kid would want Shrek, as compared to the cuter characters like Puss and Donkey
That’s really cute! I like it
Thanks, sweetie!
Amazing job! Looks just like Shrek.
SHREK! That’s just so cool!
This looks great!!! It’s a sign of true talent when you can make authentic characters such as Shrek so well!!
Amanda: Thank you!
Sarah: Hehe, thanks doll
Avanika: Awww you’re so sweet, dearie
