Chevron Fox Birthday Cake

Happy New Year, everyone!  It’s been a while since I posted, but I’ve certainly been busy (both with making cakes and with the general holiday chaos!).  Now that things have returned to normal (whatever that is…), I thought I’d get back to sharing my tasty treats with you.

Today’s share is this cute fox cake for a little boy’s first birthday.  His mom wanted to match these beautiful party printables from Etsy (check them out – ThePrettyPaperStudio is based in London, ON, so I’m always happy to put a shout-out for fellow Canadians!).  Mom wanted to focus on the mint-green with white mini-polka dots, which I used for the name and age number.  Grey mini-chevrons adorned the sides, and I created little Mr. Fox for the top!  The set has a cute deer and raccoon, too, but the fox was her favourite (and I think mine too).

Mom also requested a mini buttercream smash cake for the birthday boy.  I used a simple petal technique, with another mint polka-dot #1 to match the main cake.

I hope you enjoyed this cute little cake as much as I did!  That’s all for now, but I’ll be back with more catch-up cakes later.
