While stumbling through some salamander pages found searching StumbleUpon, I found a blog with instructions on how to make an axolotl cake. I have a birthday coming up soon and my fingers are crossed.

Update. On 9/20/2009, showing my older daughter's culinary skills, I was surprised to receive, a mudpuppy cake! I thought the lollipops as gills were great and the cake was delicious.
