Homemade Baby Einstein Caterpillar Cake
For my son's first birthday I found this site and was inspired by the other Baby Einstein Caterpillar cakes. This is my take on it!
Two Wilton Ball pans, 5 cake mixes and 4 hours of icing. The tail and feet are halves of iced Twinkies, his antennae are Twizzlers. I drew the eyes and mouth on before starring the head. We gave our son the head to "smash".
I did the sections in different flavors, chocolate, vanilla and strawberry, and he is sitting on a 3 foot board that I covered with a scrap piece of fabric. There was PLENTY of cake to go around. Unsure of exactly how much icing would be needed, I went ahead and bought the big tub of Wilton premade icing at Walmart. As well as the 12 pack Wilton gel coloring.
The picture doesn't do the colors justice, they were such pure, vibrant colors!
