Nothing says spring like LADYBUGS! and flowers!
A few weeks ago I saw the most ladybugs I've ever seen in one place in my life near my office downtown. We looked them up online and found that they were mating. Now are seeing the larva on the walls of our building & they are developing their wings.
It's been fun to watch the circle of a ladybug's life. They sure are ugly in the larva stage. You wouldn't think it was going to turn into a beautiful ladybug.
bottom layer - with a thin coat of fresh whip cream
piping a border (dam) on the cake so the strawberries don't push out the sides
border all the way around
start laying the strawberries
add the top layer & then stablize with a straw
insert the straw in the center of the cake til it hits the bottom
retract the straw about 1/4th of an inch and cut with scissors
push the straw down so it's below the surface
Straw below the surface
frost & decorate!

That cake is adorable! I would love to see the ladybugs growing, it sounds gross but also really cool! As always I wish I could make cakes half as cute as yours!
