This mini-tiered cake is covered with white fondant, then airbrushed purple. We also airbrushed a mix of lemon extract and luster dust over the whole cake for a shimmering effect. The flowers and butterflies are gumpaste. The butterfllies are hand-painted with food coloring/luster dust. I have to share credit with my husband on this cake. He is rockstarcakes on here...he is amazing. :)
