The very hungry caterpillar cake


This was an order for a one year old’s birthday and it was to feed 80 people. What one year old knows 80 people. Anyway it was HUGE, 16”x12” 4 layer eggless vanilla, with homemade raspberry jam and vanilla buttercream.

Gosh I think I mixed up about 20 different colours/shades for this. For the foods I painted them onto parchment paper and then chilled them to make them easy to remove and pop on, took forever but I love how it all turned out

    Beautifully done! As a retired cake decorator of 40 years standing, I can tell you that rarely a cake with any complication was done before midnight!

    In fact, I had the pictures to prove it. My sister documented me putting a wedding cake together, and the window in the background went from light to dark to light! LOLOL

    I apologize if I am posting again, but I can’t find my original post. I just wanted to say what a marvelous cake that is! 🙀 You can truly see all of the hard work that went into making it. Not only is it adorable, it brings back fond memories. And I agree, what 1 year old knows 80 people? And how are there 80 people who want to go to a child’s first party? 🧐 😻
