Lady Bug Smash Cake!

This was my first ever "smash cake". I couldn't help but get extra excited about this one as I thought of a cute, chubby little baby digging her hands into it and probably trying cake for the first time. How fun is it that my cake will be in her home videos or in her first photo album? The theme was lady bug and I LOVE how it turned out. Such a fun cake to make. P.S. this is the first cake I did post pregnancy! Feels good to be back.
