How To... make a zebra-striped hair bow cake

Step 1 {{the most crucial step of all}}:  Locate one loving Fairy Grandmother to babysit a newborn. 

Next, bake a cake in a Wilton butterfly-shaped cake pan.


Trace the shape onto a piece of paper.


Draw your design onto the paper.


Ice the cake with white icing.


Place your template on the cake...


... and outline with black icing.


Fill in the shape with zebra stripes. 

Voila!
