Basic Cake Preparation
First use a European-style scraper to scrape out a round base with textured pattern, pipe line-shaped fruit paste decoration on the side of the cake, then pipe a lace border at the bottom and edge; next pipe branch shapes onto the surface of the cake.

Pipe the Sheep's Body
Use a small round piping tip to pipe out the body parts of the cartoon sheep.
3
Pipe the Back Legs
Pipe the cartoon sheep's back legs at the rear of the body.
4
Pipe the Front Legs
Pipe the cartoon sheep's front legs below the front of the body.
5
Pipe the Sheep's Head and Tail
Pipe the sheep's head at the upper end above the front legs, and pipe out the sheep's tail.
6
Refine the Sheep's Head
Use fine piping of fresh cream to add dynamic details to the cartoon sheep's head, and pipe out the sheep's ears.
7
Pipe the Horns and Hooves
Use fresh cream to pipe out the cartoon sheep's horns, and use chocolate paste to decorate the hooves.
