Edible butterflies

After bible study, I started baking straight away for the two cakes for Sunday. One a wedding cake with these blue butterflies and the other a dedication cake for a one year old girl.

I had started to make the butterflies yesterday and finished painting them today. Now they're drying so I can put them on on Sunday morning. They're made with gum paste, which is basically fondant with tylose powder! Don't ask!!! Not all these butterflies will make it to the cake.

Baked till about 5 and then iced the cakes ready for covering with fondant tomorrow.

We were invited to dinner at the Plaza by my neighbour's mum who's visiting and we sat by the waterfront enjoying the cool breeze. Temps are still quite warm here, today was 32 C.

Have a lovely weekend everyone xxx
