Flowers And Butterflies

Cake done in BC, with fondant flowers and a fondant butterfly. This cake gave me such trouble, I put the wrong size flowers on it and so this morning I had to go back and remake the flowers smaller. Yeah, what a treat :) This cake was done for a mom's group that decided to get together and have a party just for the mom's where they bring in their wedding albums and have dinner. They wanted a small wedding cake for it!

is that royal icing? How did you make it? I love the butterfly and the pearls in the middle of the flowers. It's really pretty.

Hey everyone, thanks for all the wonderful compliments. Bubba21, center of the flowers were just pearl and pink dragees, The colors on the cake were ivory and then the three colors for the dragee centers were pearl, pastel pink, and deep pink.

I used a butterfly cookie cutter with fondant, then I cut down the center to seperate the wings. I then let them dry, once dry, I was able to fold some cardboard and have them lay on a strip of Royal Icing to dry. Oh and I decorated the fondant with Royal, before I put them in the cardboard.
