Start by breaking off a small piece of yellow fondant and roll it into an oval shape—this will be the body of your bee. Make sure it’s nice and plump!
Next, take some black fondant and roll it into thin ropes. Cut them into small segments and gently press them onto your yellow body to create stripes.
For the head, make a slightly smaller oval with black fondant and attach it to one end of the yellow body using a bit of royal icing or edible glue.
Create the wings by rolling out white fondant and cutting them into wing shapes. Attach them to the back of your bee using icing.
Using an edible black marker, draw on cute little eyes and a smile. Everyone loves a happy bee!
Let your fondant bees dry a bit to harden before placing them on your cake.

And there you have it! Your very own fondant bees, ready to take flight atop your delightful desserts. Get ready to impress your friends and family with your new cake decorating skills. Now, get buzzing, and happy decorating!
