This “Madagascar Lion” cake featuring a 3D sugar art figurine of Alex the Lion was commissioned by Dave for his 6 year old son Avinash's birthday. Since Alex is an alpha lion, I decided to make him in a relaxed and lazing “King of the Beast” pose with half closed dreamy eyes! Don’t know why, but the song “Do ya think I am sexy?” by Rod Steward kept playing in my mind when I see this pose.
Cake was airbrushed to give it a reddish orange sunset look. I then hand painted a cartoon safari silhouette scenery on the sides to add to the African lion theme.
