Spider Cake

This cake was for my nephew who was turning 9. He was into insects, cars, etc. so I decided to make him a giant spider for his birthday.

I colored the fondant black. Shaped the cakes as I wanted them with white butter cream icing in between. The legs were made from floral wire and black fondant. The base was made with butter cream icing.

I made a fly wrapped in sider web from fondant and icing. The blood spatter is icing. The eyes fondant.

He loved it!
