I think it looks wonderful!! The butterfiles are so cute, the fondant is smooth and your little pearls look wonderful! Great job
I forgot to mention...your rose is PERFECT!
That is simply gorgeous! Simple, tasteful...really nice!
Wish my first had come out even half as well!
Wow, that is really beautiful. Very hard to believe it's a first.
Its definately my first wedding cake I did it for my sister. I only usually make novelty cakes.
Have you already posted it in the galleries yet? I would like to put it in my favorites.
I have to ask, like another poster, how did you do the butterflies? I'm guessing they're chocolate, but are they molds or what?
Yes it is in my photos. The butterflies are made of flower/ gum paste rolled out thinly and cut out with a patchwork cutter then dried over the edge of a box for a couple of days to get the shape.
They are supposed to look like dark, milk and white chocolate.
Thank you for all your lovely comments maybe I will do more wedding cakes. They really scare me!!!
That is absolutely beautiful! I love the simplicity of it. It is very Elegant too.
Well Done!
It's drop dead gorgeous. I adore the genius placement and movement of the butterfly cascade. It totally looks like white, milk and dark chocolate. When you said gum paste, I'm thinking whaaat? That's chocolate isn't it?!
It's utterly classic but so so unique. Lovely artistry.
Beautiful beautiful work
You have nothing to be scared of . Your cake is gorgeous perfection. Love the butterflies.
very pretty!! I am dying to do a butterfly cake!
One critique, and I'm not even that sure about it, but the butterflies seems too far apart. I think I would like it to be a little tighter. But that is just a minor thing. Otherwise, it's great!!
wedding cakes scare me to but you have a natural gift, this cake is to die for, looks like your butterflys just left a garden and are in flight. dont stop keep doing what you do, cause you are good at it
I am so new to decorating, so I think I still have the "amature eye" but if this were my wedding cake I would be sooooooooooo thrilled! You have a very lucky sister! I love your butterflies!
The cake is gorgeous, I love the butterflies. You did a wonderful job on the cake, I bet she loved it!
there is NOTHING wrong with that cake. Its simply gorgeous. I would want that for a wedding cake. Beautiful butterflies I like how you made them cascade on the cake.
Beautiful,I wish I could get my fondant that smooth and the butterflies are perfect as is the rose.
Stunning
Can't believe it's a first. You must have practiced a whole lot before this. Great job!
