Ladybug Cake image

All this cute cake needs is a cake mix, frosting and a few cookies and candies. Made this cake last night with a commercial size cake mix and it was a huge success today! However, I cheated with the decorations a bit. Here is the original recipe from bettycrocker.com

This cake is way too expensive to make. I'm not going to spend that much money on a dessert.

I don't think I'd like the taste of this cake. I'm not a fan of chocolate and strawberries together.
