First Birthdays

Chances are you don't remember your first birthday, but there are probably pictures floating around or if you ask your mom or dad, they can tell you all about it.  I can say that first birthday's have come a long way since I was a kid.  

Yesterday, I did a cake for my friend Carrie, and her adorable daughter, Elli.  The theme of the cake was "Ladybug" in hot pink and black with a smash cake of course.  

We'll start with the layer cake first.  The bottom layer was chocolate cake with chocolate buttercream and the top layer was french vanilla with vanilla buttercream.  All the decorations were made of fondant and the ladybug on top was made of rice krispies covered in fondant.  The smash cake was yellow cake with vanilla buttercream with buttercream decorations to match the candle to match the candle.
