Fondant Plane & Teddy Cake Topper Tutorial + Printable Templates

I really wish I’d had a template set like this when I made my very first plane topper — it would have saved me so much time (and a lot of frustration).

I remember trying to guess the right shapes and proportions, adjusting and re-adjusting as I went. This tutorial takes that uncertainty away. Everything is already worked out for you, so you can focus on the fun part — bringing the plane and teddy to life.

The guidance is clear and broken into manageable steps, with printable templates that make sure each element fits together neatly and looks balanced.

The finished topper is perfect for birthday cakes, travel/aviation themes, and kids’ cakes.

You will learn how to:

• create a smooth, sturdy plane body

• make the wings, tail, propeller, and clean small details

• model the teddy and add the pilot hat and goggles

• assemble everything so it’s secure, holds its shape, and looks neat
