I watched a cake show recently and saw the pretiest gunpaste butterflies and would love to make some for myself does anyone know of a site or where I could go to learn how to make these beautiful butterflies please e-mail me it would be greatly appreciated

Sure, try this....youtube.com and do a search for gumpaste butterflies. There are a few videos that may get you started.

Welcome to CC! On which show did you see the butterflies? I ask because there are so many different ways to make them... there are simple butterfly shaped cutters, and there are more elaborate cutters that also have a mat that goes with them to imprint wing patterns upon them.

Global Sugar Art is a good place to research ideas:
