13. Roll out a piece of white fondant over icing sugar so that it is not at all sticky. Fold the fondant over itself so that you have two layers. Carve out a side of the mouth/teeth (below-left) and a shape for the eyes (below-right). By doubling up the fondant, you only have to crave out one of each the mouth and the eye and they will be symmetrical.

14. Apply the mouth and the white of the eyes to the face of the turtle using buttercream or shortening, shaping them to look the way you want.






15. Colour a very small amount of fondant black. Using a small cookie cutter or bottle cap, make two small circles. Trim the top off each circle and apply them to the white of the eyes, shaping them as you want.

16. Use a small amount of the white fondant trimmings to create the small inner circles of the eyes, as shown below, and apply them to the black.






17. Using the side of a toothpick, carve indents into the mouth area to create the illusion of teeth.

18. If you want, using a black food decorating pen, or some black gel colour at the end of the toothpick, trace the indents to define the teeth.






19. Pinch the headband a little between the eyes, clean it off and you're done!

20. Watch as your toddler gives you a look or horror as you serve him his favourite character's head on a platter and slice into it for all to enjoy!
