5. Roll out the cake; its thickness should be about two to three millimeters. Using a special mold, cut out the figure.If you do not have such a device, then you can replace it with a regular kitchen knife.

6. Leave the figurine to dry overnight; it is best to place it on a regular piece of paper. The dough should become very hard.
