1. Making the body

To decorate the bottom of the cake Paul makes up some small balls of sugarpaste using all the same different colours of sugarpaste. You’ll be pleased to know that the giraffe is actually quitre simple to make and is supported with a bamboo skewer and of course a little CMC  powder added to help strengthen the body.

Paul now goes onto to add the antlers and a cute little hair do. For the giraffe cot Paull cuts up lots of little roughly cut rectangular pieces of sugarpaste and adds them with a little edible glue. This gives it a nice cartoon feel.
