This is truly a beautiful cake. Love everything about it (quilting pattern, butterflies,color scheme)

Oh i love this!! I love the butterflies!! Please PM me and tell me how you did these! GREAT JOB!! I love love love the color! :D

Very nice! I can't wait to try Jen's recipe! Both of her videos are invaluable!! Is there a tutorial somewhere on these awesome butterfies? Were they much work?

CSM: absolutely fabulous! nothing to critique from me- I love this technique

you,ve done a gorgeous job on your cake and butterflies.. i have jennifers dvd's they are great.. i saw the butterflies at the convention.. they are beautiful

Thank you for all the kind comments!! I must say I'm really, really happy about the way this cake turned out. As to how I did the butterflies, it's kind of hard to explain but let me try: I took a class with Michaelle Stidham (awesome cake artist by the way) and she developed some veining sheets. We made a simple gelatin solution and painted it over the veining sheets, trimmed them and used piping gel and disco dust to decorate. Royal icing piped bodies. Hope that helps! :D

CSM: I love the butterflies and the color of them. I'm not to fond of how they are placed on the cake. The quilting is perfect. Finish off the cake board with a matching color ribbon and you you're done!

everytime I see a pretty cake, the next day, I see a prettier one! I absolutely adore the butterflies....the color! the shape! the shine! omg, i love it so much. If you would be so kind, can you please tell me how to make the butterflies? Fabulous job!

Absolutely gorgeous - love the colour! Could you please share the recipe for the gelatin solution?

Wow Bob!! This is some fantastic work!! I adore your butterflies!

beautiful, and simply classy!

CSM: Great job! The quilting is perfect and I really love your gelatin butterflies (the colours is lovely too) but I have to agree with cakemommy about the board (I think a white board (maybe fondant covered) with a ribbon to match the butterflies would have just topped it off beautifully. My first thought when I saw this was that perhaps there are too many butterflies but it could be as mentioned and it could be the placement. Overall you did a fantastic job! Excellent butterflies and excellent ...

job on the quilting! :D

Awesome butterflies.I love the gilltter in them.

Hi BWB! WOWZA!!! Gorgeous cake!!!! You asked if I had any comments for improvement...... it's perfect!!!!!!!! Jen :-)

Beautiful cake. The butterflies are wonderful as is your cake work. Personally, I think the silver cake board goes well with the blue.

CSM: very pretty cake! I love butterflies, and I especially love the color you used for them. For me I think there are just too many of them, or maybe there doesn't seem to be a delicate flow of positioning? overall this is a very beautiful cake!

The butterflies are so cool! They're wireless, right? - Theresa

This is so delecate and fragile looking! Soooo pretty!!!!
