    What a sensational crocodile! Well done Frogga.

    I wonder whether, if you made a fruit cake one with almonds on the top, it would qualify as Crododile Dundee?

    Want to join the Old Style Punners Club - post 5 :p

    I've been inspired by this thread to try making some mice and hedgehogs (I tried penguins and chickens, but they need some refining :rolleyes: ). I've spoken with Frogga, and she's happy for me to put the pics on here.

    When I find my camera lead, I'll post some photos.

  • Frogga has decided that doing the baking herself is a mug's game. She's decided to commission people to bake to her designs, and she get's a (large) percentage of the takings :T

    Some pics for you:

    Before they went into the oven:

    Mouse:

    They tasted yummy, though as my 3yo tester pointed out, you have to be careful with the hedgehog, and the spines prickle your mouth :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    Please can no-one mention this picture to Churchmouse - she'll be insufferable if the thinks people are making images of her :rolleyes:

    Crikey! Not only do you name a chicken after her, now you're baking flippin' mice! :rolleyes: How big do you want her head to get? :confused::D

    Penny, they look fab! :T

    Ahem....why do you have no pink chickens or bread???
  • My head has to be big to hold all my brains you know. Bung some pink colouring into the next batch Pen-Pen, just to keep her quiet;) :rotfl: (But don't you dare dye Mouse pink:eek: She'd never hold her head up in the hen-house again:D )

    Frogga and Penny,

    Hats off to both of you for your masterpieces! :T :T

    Can I ask one thing....how do you get the lovely glaze on your finished bread? Mine tastes good but always looks dull.
