My friend Stephanie was having her first baby. I was thrilled when she commissioned one of my cakes :) Her Little Man theme included bow ties and mustaches. Although the cake only focused on the bow ties. She also wanted to incorporate the banner with baby Nehemiah's name and along the top tier.
Close up of the bunting. I used this tutorial to make the patterns for the fondant triangles and for the bow ties. It made all the difference in the cake to go the extra step instead of laying the dots and stripes on top of the triangles. Its a much cleaner look.
The bow ties and onesies go all around the cake. The letters were cut from fondant using the Curlz tappit letter cuters. A onesie with a bow tie frames the front nicely.
Thanks for stopping by and taking a looksy :) These boy party ideas were also featured on Spaceships and Laser Beams.

Did you use a mold for the little bow ties, or just for by hand? Thanks! I have a baby shower im doing and trying to put bow ties one the mini onsie..very small!
I did them by hand. I rolled out a piece of fondant the main color first thin but not too thin and then laid the stripes or dots pattern on the fondant you already rolled and then reroll so the pattern stays then just shaped them by hand. Good luck
