3Inch Wedding Cakes/bonbonaires

I had to make 100 of each (200 in total...300 butterflies arrrrrgh!) of these cakes for bonbonaires. orignally the bride wanted 2inch sq with mud cakes with one butterfly in the middle, then did the "bride thing" and changed her mind to 3inch, 95 mud, 95 white mud and 10 fruit cakes, two different designs and monograms. They were packaged in clear bonbonaire boxes.....what a pain to package but look really nice..thanks for looking

I used a cutter for the large butterflies and a paper punch for the small ones, I made a viener from a butterfliy windchime, worked great....by the time I had finished the cakes I think I had gone batty!!
