Coolest 1st Birthday Ladybug Cake

I wanted to do a cute 1st Birthday Ladybug Cake for my daughter’s first birthday. We call her our little lady and decided that it would be an appropriate theme. The bottom layer is an 8” square chocolate almond cake with a white chocolate ganache filling. The flower cake I made from a tall jello mold with a 6” diameter.

This cake is a white sour cream almond also filled with the white chocolate ganache. The lady bug has no filling and is also a sour cream almond cake. The lady bug head was made from a cupcake that I froze then carved into a circle and the body is made from a small 3” round Pyrex prep bowl. I used buttercream frosting to decorate and the square and 6” round are coated with white chocolate shavings.

The cake was a hit and got rave reviews.
