How to make a dinosaur birthday cake
Assembling the dinosaur cake
1. On the first cake layer, cut a slice off of one side. Then in the middle of the flat side of the cake layer, cut a U-shaped piece out to create the dinosaurs belly and legs. Place the layer on a serving platter.
2. Using paper templates, cut a head and tail out of the second cake layer (cut the dome off the top first so its flat). Place head and tail on the serving platter, joining the pieces to the dinosaurs body. Glue the cake to the platter by placing some frosting underneath each piece of cake. Crumb coat the entire cake with a thin layer of green frosting.
3. Freeze the cake for 30 minutes.
Decorate the dinosaur cake
1. Frost the entire cake with another layer of green frosting. Smooth frosting on sides of cake using an offset spatula. Smooth the top of the cake, working from the outside to the middle. Have hot water on hand to clean the spatula as you are smoothing frosting. Dry spatula each time you clean it before continuing to frost the cake.
2. Place flat chocolate disks on the cake to make spots on the dinosaur.
3. Use smaller chocolate candies for eyes and toes.
4. Use pointy candies across the top to create spikes along the dinosaurs head, back and tail.
5. Using white frosting in a pastry bag, make white dots in the center of each chocolate eye.
6. Using white frosting in a pastry bag, draw on a smile. Or, for a scary dino, make teeth by holding the pastry bag in place, squeezing to form a dot and then pulling up to create a point.

I really think she should open her own bakery. She makes the best cakes!
Does anyone else just watch her for fun instead of baking? ; P
Ta
Ya
U know why bc we r kids duh :3
I watched it when I was young and finally found it again
My 7 year old daughter is obsessed with watching cake baking tips. Thank you for such a great tutorial. She had no clue what a crumb coating was (neither did I). We actually watch it to learn, not criticize like other people who obviously have lost their ability to realize not everyone has been watching UA-cam videos on cake making all their lives. My daughter is planning a surprise birthday party for her baby cousin and is making this cake. Thank you!
I was too😅
I made this cake today for my son's 4th birthday tomorrow. I made a larger version by using an 11x15 pan and enlarging the templates accordingly. It turned out great. I should have purchased or made more icing, but it still looked great. Thanks for the video instructions.
Glad you gave it a whirl! Sounds like your kiddos loved it too...gotta love it!
I watched this when I was 11.... I'm 20......
26 now lol

My dad's birthday was this April and every since he was a little kid he always loved dinosaurs. After my youngest sister and I saw this tutorial for this cake, we need EXACTLY what we wanted to do for our dad's birthday surprise. So we made this cake (using some different candies and blue frosting), and surprised with it. It made me smile and cry knowing that we worked hard just make him this awesome cake. Thank for this tutorital. It really made our dad's birthday :)

Finally Someone Who Know What A Spatula Is , Everyone Thinks A Spatula Is A Fish Slice.
O AND THIS IS GOREOUS
Last year I did the train cake I learned from this site. This year I may do this dinosaur one for my son's b day . He's obsessed with dinosaurs & Land Before Time.
I love it so much better than my Chanel

Thank You, Thank You, Thank You!! I was unable to find the link for the template, until I read your reply!!
Thanks!!!!
At 1:20 she was thinking "Why does this woman always ask me what a crumb coat is?!"
i love green dinosaurs :]
thanks for posting this video
Im excited to make a cake now
thanks again
I am going to make this cake for my best friend becoz she luv dinosaurs!!!
omggg i want this for my birthdayy
OMG again with the crumb coat!
Oh my gosh how cute! I think I'll try to make this cake for my son's 4th birthday. :D
very cute cake ^.^
and I for one found the crumb coat tip /helpful/ unlike /some/ of you people who feel like people should just be born with the knowledge of how to avoid cake crumbs or something.
also, if you don't like 1/4 inch of frosting, put less. If you don't like that candy amount, put less or how about, just not eat it all. You know, you don't /have/ to eat something just because it's placed on a cake you don't eat the candles do you.
My god people it's her job to ask what a crumb coat is. This is a help video's for people wanting to make the cakes. Not everyone watches everyone of these video's.
I'm going to attempt to make this in 3 weeks for my sons 5th birthday :D
It just looks good
Yup! That is the cool part! ;)
Aww..I would make it for you..I want to try my hand at making it any way.
I watched this when I was 9 or 10 and now I’m 23! Siri suddenly suggested me to this 🥲 all the memories… I even made the guitar cake when I was 10
love it... super cute... i was wondering if you make a nemo cake
very cute, it looks like the one you buy at the store
Thats so cute!
So cute pops
I know right
this is your best cake yet, i really like the cute roundness of this particular cake :D may i suggest a hamburger cake, or something to do with the 70's era?
Cool guitar and dinosaur cake
So is this lady betty Crocker ? Like the real Betty crocker ??
This was my childhood 😍
i`m gonna try to make this cake for my son`s 2nd birthday!!!!!
Aww! That will be awesome! Let us know how it turns out!;)
thanks for sharing this idea... this is great!

wow these all cakes are incrediable I just can not believe you you are professional .That cakes are so easy to decorate :) unbelievable. But I don't have any kids so I'm going to note your website name or download your all videos and when I have a kid or some kids I hope I will cook and decorate for them especially for their birthday or special days I would not want the kids to consume artificial foods Imean food coloring etc. but sometimes for special events or days we can use them can't we :)
Nice bright color (green)
laurie changes the subject coz shes jelous how liv bakes cakes so good.
:) 4:18
You could use the betty crocker frosting, which comes in chocolate fudge and vanilla, there really yummy :) or you could use stablised whipped cream? Or just whipped cream? or chocolate ganash?
that is awesome you should try making rainbow cupcakes
your awsome with cakes
Yup! We feel the same way! ;)
you are soooo lucky il start doing this
cool! you guys should definitely make a ballerina cake!
OMG!!! So cute! And I love the toes
I made it for my son's bd party and I thank you for a lovely idea. The only problem I had is that I could not freeze it because my freezer is too small or the cake was too big for it ;-) so I had a bit if a problem with tbe crumbs. But it still came out lovely :-) thank you and I hope you show us some more ideas
its sooo cute! imma make it
why Liv Hansen stoped making videos?! I love her,she makes baking and decorating cakes so easy!
The icing stays creamy, just do a google search for a basic buttercream recipe :)
