This cake was one of my first cakes. It is very simple and was made for a dessert auction at my church in order to raise money for the youth group. This caterpillar cake is made from one bundt cake, some vanilla wafers, pretzels, gumdrops, and a few chocolate chips. With this cake I just cut the bundt cake in half and one of the halves in half again. I made the shape by placing the two smaller portions on either end of the large middle portion. After coloring the buttercream frosting this shade of green, it was very simple to place the decorations for the feet, eyes, mouth, and antenna. I really like this cake even though it is a very simple design. This cake woule be easy for anyone to do at home. I only wish that I had done a more complex design method, like fondant or gumpaste since it would have looked much nicer. If the whole body was covered in fondant it would have made the ridges look more defined and clean. All in all, this cake was a good cake to start with.
