Hello Ankit Srivastava

If you are based in the UK, the best place to buy any shape or height dummies is from:
http://www.dummiesdirect.co.uk/dummiesdirect/index.html

I guess if you stuck the 2 x 3″ dummies together extremely well, you should be able to carve them to shape without too many problems. Paul has hot glued his dummies and also used dowels for additional support. This part would be even more important for you to ensure the dummies don’t come apart. It may be wise to do the same to provide total stability for when when the actual cake is placed on the structure.
Hope it works out for you. 🙂
