Ladybug Cake for First Birthday

by Natasha Vaughn
(Alexandria, TN)

This ladybug cake was the smash cake for a first birthday girl. This cake was baked using half of the Wilton Ball pan. It was covered in rolled buttercream.

For the head I formed a ball of marshmallow fondant. For the antennae I covered toothpicks in marshmallow fondant and added a small ball of fondant on the end of each antennae.

The spots are also marshmallow fondant. The flowers are royal icing using tip 2D. For the grass I used a grass tip and buttercream icing. The facial features and stripes on the body are royal icing.

Which recipe
by: Natasha

Are you wanting the recipe for the rolled buttercream or the cake itself? The cake was made from a mix.
