Seeing Spots and Polka Dots {styled shoot}

When our friend Beth at True Love Photo asked us to create a cake that had polka dots both on the outside and the inside... we responded "challenge accepted!!". After countless tasty trials we did it, and not once but twice.
We create a bold yellow cake with evenly space blue polka dots and a second one with bright red polka dots. The cakes were then decorated with a matching polka dot pattern.

 Now a couple of in process pics of how the magic was created:
(sorry for the pics, they were taken from my iPhone and for some reason unknow to me they uploaded upside down)

a cookie scoop was used to make space for the polka dots

after the dots were added a layer of matching color buttercream was added
The second layer of polka dots added to the cake.
