This Ladybug 2nd birthday cake was for my lady bug Anabelle. She turned 2 this year and just loves playing in the garden. She loves vanilla flavor so the cake was vanilla with a caramel butter cream filling. I had to make enough cake for all her friends at school so I decided to also add some cupcakes with butter cream icing “grass” and sour worms in the mix.
I made one spring form cake for the ladybug to sit on and the ladybug itself is a cake I baked in Wilton’s sportsball pan. It was then covered with fondant and given a cute face. They loved the cupcakes and “platform” but didn’t want to cut the ladybug as they thought it would be cruel to cut something that cute. As I entered the school with the cake I felt like a rock star. All the kids wanted to touch the giant ladybug.
It was really fun to make!
