Butterfly Cake

I made this for my sister's birthday. It is fondant covered with fondant flowers and rice paper butterfly. Thanks for looking!

Absolutely beautiful. My daughter just saw it ( she is butterfly crazy) and now she wants a cake just like that for her birthday. I have 8 months to learn how to make a butterfly as beautiful as yours. Great job on the whole cake.

Thanks everyone!! This was really easy. I bought the sheet of pre-printed butterflies at Sugarcraft. Then just cut one out, brushed it with a thin coat of piping gel and sprinkled edible glitter on. I let it dry overnight and attached to the fondant body. The antennae are flower stamens.
