There's a recipe for "rampaunt perre" in Form of Cury (collected in 
Pleyn Delit) which involves rampant lion shapes made out of dough.  It 
doesn't say how to make the shapes.  The one time I tried it, I cut bear 
shapes out of pie crust with a paper pattern and a knife.  (The bears 
matched my heraldry.)
