I have to admit that this scaly little monster was my favorite reptile to create for young Kaben's fifth birthday party. Like the frog before him, he started off with a rice crispy body, which I then covered in modeling chocolate. He was also based on a toy iguana I bought at the toy store (thank you $1.00 aisle!!).
This little iguana had lots of details, and I made almost all of them out of modeling chocolate. I made his back "spikes" (that's their real-life name - the fact that I referred to them initially as that was just dumb luck!) out of a thin strip of modeling chocolate that I then used my precision scissors to cut the spikes. This little guy also had his share of time with the texture mat and the old airbrush gun.
This iguana was sunning himself on a rock, you know, the way iguanas tend to do! The "rock" is a 2-tier cake which I carved into a jaggy rock shape and then covered in buttercream with a few green mossy bits thrown in for some color.
So what do you think? Did you guess iguana as the next reptile on the list? Can you possibly guess which reptile will be slithering your way next week? Thanks for stopping by - feel free to ask any questions you might have in the comments.
