Say g'day to Dino. I helped make him for a friend's boys' birthday party and what a lot of fun it was! You can find the step-by-step instructions for making him here but structurally, the cake basically consists of two 9-inch rounds, cut into the shapes below:

Since two 9-inch rounds probably wouldn't feed all the 45 guest who were coming, we decided to make some cupcakes as well.

Okay Dino, say cheese! (Or whatever it is that cute dinosaur cakes say when they have their picture taken).

Wow... he's great! I haven't really attempted many shaped birthday cakes. I really love the matching cupcakes and I bet the boys thought they tasted better because they were green!
It's lovely having Christi in Albany, she has been coming along to the young mum's bible study group that I lead :-)
