Butterfly Cakes


I haven't been doing much interesting cooking recently, mainly due to lack of funds. We have spent the summer eating salad, jacket spuds and pasta, old favorites which I have already blogged about! I have been a very lazy blogger, no excuse, just need to get myself motivated!

I made these butterfly cakes for little F's 5th birthday party back in August. They were just decorated with thinly rolled marzipan shaped with a butterfly cutter, painted with diluted colour paste and edible glitter (which stayed with me for days!)

J told me that one of her friends, who was just about to eat her cake, had a real butterfly landed on her shoulder and there it sat for quite a while!
