Avery will only be 1 once in her life! So this needs to be special! A special cake, for this special little girl.
Her bedroom, and some favorite toys are ladybugs. So, it seemed natural to have a ladybug cake!
We got a head start on her cake... juuust in case we needed to make a trip to DQ for a plan B.
Here's how we made it!
Iced and stacked 2 round cakes.
Then put it in the freezer for a few hours.
Then put it in the freezer for a few hours.
Mike did the first pink outline!
Filled in the pink icing, and white eyes!
Outlined the brown, and made circles.
Then back in the freezer for another couple hours...
Finally, the last layer of chocolate icing was filled in, and smoothed out.
It turned out pretty good!
I'm sure there's faster ways to do what we did!! This was a bit of trial and error, with ALOT of icing layers. It was a lot of fun to make! I didn't expect baking/decorating to be so enjoyable! After all that work, it just get's eaten anyways... Guess this year we don't need DQ ;)
