Im thinking of using a pound cake, as I have heard its much easier to shave/cut the cake into your desired shape.

the heavier the cake the easier it is to cut, also freeze it use a really sharp knife or a serated one to cut and you wont get so many crumbs.

Often for shaped cakes the bought packet cakes are recommended. I have always found them successful, very nice and stress free tho of course homemade from scratch would be healthier - if you can say that about cake! !

Here's the one I use. I double it and cook it in a cake tin.
