Description
This is a cake of Smaug from the Hobbit, made before the movie came out.It's modelled off of Weta Workshops' Bronze Smaug sculpture
The base of the cake is covered in fondant, but smaug is made of rice krispy treats covered in modelling chocolate and painted with gel food colours. The wings have food safe wire framing in them (I tried to do it without the wire.. it was way beyond me.)

very good!
i would have made also the base of the cake yellow...so to have the final impression that he is really lying on a big pile of gold.
anyway, great work!

I think after seeing The Hobbit I definitely would do something along those lines! I was mainly trying to replicate the sculpture by Weta Workshop in this case, since it was for my Dad and he owns the statue
