I have never baked anything more than a box of brownies, so I was a little intimidated about making a "cool" cake, but I'm never one to shy away from a creative challenge.
He LOVES Baby Einstein, and this catepillar comes across the screen at the beginning of each DVD. My little guy gets SO excited, so I knew that's what we had to do for a cake.
The cake was made out of a sports ball pan. I used the halves instead of making the full ball, and the covered it in store bought fondant that we colored with food coloring. A LOT easier than I thought it would be!
The antennae are dum dums covered in fondant.

I think he approved:
He wouldn't stop eating it! Daddy got a little scared that he would get sick so we finally tore him away from the cake. I will absolutely be making more cakes in the future. This was a lot of fun!
