Cute as a Ladybug

An individual-sized cake for a little girl's pet frog. A strange request, but I love how the ladybug turned out!

SOOOOO CUTE! IF YOU DON'T MIND SHARING, WHAT DID YOU MAKE THE FACE OUT OF? DID YOU COVER RICE CRIPSY TREATS, OR IS IT FONDANT?

This is a really small cake (5"), so I just used a ball of modelling chocolate tinted skin color for the head. Body is RKT covered with red modelling chocolate.

Attention to detail! WOW!! Can you tell me about what you used on your cake board and the lettering you used. I really love the look. 8O

...did I mention I love the colors, the little lady bug, the Whole Thing! Can't stop looking at it!

Cake base is covered in embossed white foil. I used FMM tappits for the lettering (I love these! Such a time-saver vs. freehand with an x-acto. :) ).

Another beauty. You are so sweet to answer all the questions requested by other members. I too believe that a candle loses nothing by lighting another
