Taming the Beast

.



This year's St. George dragon is, honest to goodness, a twenty minute dragon, not counting shopping and bake time. I simply ran out of time at the end of the day with a deadline in front of me (as evidenced by the sloppy icing and lack of both front paws!). I refused to stress, however, considering the fact that he was made to be slain and eaten with a side of chocolate ice cream!



Charlotte has an excellent tutorial at her place, so if you care to recreate this ferocious beast for a birthday or future St. George day, be sure to check her instructions first.

This is so cute! I really had in mind that I would make my own bread dough dragon for St. George Day this year, but I have been so distracted I totally missed it. I guess there is always next year.
