How Do I Make Butterflies On A Cake?
Decorating By sheilasite Updated 8 Jun 2010 , 1:51am by tinygoose
Hi - I need to make a really elegant cake with butterflies
all over it, I have a chocolate mold for butterflies but not a fondant
mold, is there a way to make really pretty fondant butterflies by hand
that I can then either brush with edible dust or spray with some edible
colored sprays? I am a novice and not sure how to make really pretty
edible fondant butterflies so any tips would be greatly appreciated! Or
if there is another edible product I should use to make my butterflies
I would love any tips!
thank you!
Sheila
If you want to make them, you can get a cutter or mold.

I made this one for a 1st birthday. Just used cutters and laid them on the corner of a cookie sheet to dry. I used straws and icing tips for the holes. I sort of remember Cake Girls doing one with white fondant butterflies all on one side of a wedding or shower cake before. It was elegant and simple.
