Kindreas Butterfly Wedding cake

I know the cake looks as though it is leaning, but I assure you it is just the angle at which the photo was taken.

It's beautiful! How did you make your butterflies?

They are made out of royal icing. You just trace the outline of the wings on wax paper and then once dry you join with royal icing by placing in a piece of cardboard bent to form a "V". Let me re-phrase. Place the wings on opposite sides of the "V" and then join together with royal icing. Let them dry thoroughly and viola you have royal icing butterflies.
