What you need:
- Wax paper or a smooth, Crisco-ed surface
- Extra Crisco
- Toothpicks
- Red fondant
- Black fondant
- Gum Glue (Not Pictured)
Portion off the red fondant into small balls.
Squish into round or oval discs, whichever you prefer. These will form the bodies for your ladybugs. I flipped back and forth between the two, making ladybug a bit unique.
Portion out the black fondant into much smaller pieces. Flatten the black fondant into half sphere or oval disks. Dab a bit of gum glue on an end of the body and attach the black disk to make the head.
Once the head is attached, use a toothpick to make a grove down the back of the ladybug's body to make the "wings"
After making the wings, attach smaller black dots to make the ladybug's spots. Once your ladybugs are complete, place them on your cake, or cupcakes, for some added spring fun!
