Sheet your paste (paste circle diameter = double cake hight + cake diameter), cover the cake with it, cut off the border if necessary, and make it even with your hands.

I decorated the border with a twisted strip

All parts for Kitty I made separately and then glued (I don’t know if this is a correct word )) them together with water and toothpicks.

I cut the flower for the head manually using my daughter’s toy modeling tools))) I also used them for other parts 🙂

The nose is made from lemon rind. Then I embossed whiskers and cover them with chocolate. Eyes are made in the same way. In the end, I cut out with my daughter’s toy knife ))
