Overview

I wish I’d had a tutorial like this when I made my very first plane cake topper! It would’ve saved me so much time (and frustration). I spent hours trying to figure out how to get the shapes and proportions just right… but you won’t have to—everything’s ready to go! With printable templates and clear, step-by-step guidance, you can jump straight to the fun part: bringing your teddy pilot and plane to life.

I know how frustrating it is when a tutorial looks simple in a quick video—but once you start, you’re left guessing. The parts don’t quite fit, and the end result often looks nothing like you’d hoped.

That’s exactly why I created this detailed guide. With small, manageable steps and easy-to-follow templates, you’ll know exactly what to do—and your figurine will look just like the one in the cover photo.
