A quick scroll or spin through the fall offerings of any clothing or home goods retailer this year will have you seeing spots, literally. Leopard print is back in a big way! For some of us it never left (eh, hem).<\/p>\n

As most of you know, trends that pop up in clothing and home goods almost always make their way onto cakes. When deciding how to tackle this idea, I knew I wanted to go untraditional with colors. Pink leopard print speaks to my 90\u2019s teenage soul in a way that little else does. By all means go with standard browns and tans if that\u2019s your jam. I also decided to use the buttercream transfer method when making my spots to give the finished cake a little added texture and because it\u2019s easier to fix or hide any mistakes along the way. If a spot goes wonky on you, just slide the cake back into the fridge, pop the errant spot off with the tip of a knife, and try again. Just don\u2019t get too fussy with your design. This is one of those times when the more random, the better.<\/p>\n
