Squirt the Turtle and Starfish Cake

I made this cake for Doble's 1st Birthday. The guest cake is Squirt from Finding Nemo. It is a chocolate cake with buttercream icing. I used graham crackers for the sand and goldfish for the fish. Doble's cake is a star fish made with yellow cake and buttercream icing.

i love your squirt cake. I have been searching and searching the internet for months now to find a good idea for a aquirt cake for a 1st b-day. Can you tell me how you did the head, legs and arms for squirt.
Thank you

Thank you for your comment about the cake. As for how I did it...The arms and legs were cut shaped and cut from 2 round cakes. The head was baked in a bowl and then shaped to fit the body. I don't remember exactly which kind of bowl I used but something such as a large glass bowl (pampered chef measuring bowl). One tip when shaping and cutting your cakes; it works so much easier if you freeze your cake and cut while frozen. It keeps the cake from falling apart. I hope that helps out.
