You Create: Ladybug Cake




Miss Gabby asked for an orange and pink lady bug cake for her birthday, so here it is!



The bottom is a 1/4 sheet chocolate cake (standard pan size). Then I baked strawberry cake in a Pyrex bowl and in muffin tins. The body of the bug being from the Pyrex and the head is a cupcake with the bottom cut off and a little edge of it pared down to fit snug next to the body. I used a star tip, and about an hour to cover the body in pink and orange star shaped icing. The eyes are made of white chocolate disks and icing.


The antennae are just a bent pipe cleaner.


Gabriella wasn't a fan of being sung to,


but she did think the cake was tasty.

So precious. I'm not a fan of being sang to either. Don't like being the center of attention.
