Hi, I was wondering if anyone has a great idea for a buttercream only cake.  I teach cake classes and I usually teach the basketweave with the royal icing flowers which takes up two classes.  I want to get away from the royal icing, so I need ideas for buttercream cakes.  I do the rose cake, piping transfer and the clown cake.  Ideas are greatly appreciated.  Thank you, Teresa

Google Queen of Hearts cakes...she does everything in butter cream, and amazing designs at that. Maybe that will inspire you.

How about the petal effect, like this one

Whoops - sorry its so big - I don't know how to post a smaller pic!
