Brilliant Butterfly Wedding Cake How-To

You Will Need:

• All Hues Butterflies Wafer Paper Set
• Edible Clear Writing Gel
• Small craft scissors
• Your favorite cake recipe
• Your favorite frosting recipe
• Decorating Tip Set
• Pastry Bag
• Offset Icing Spatula
• Tiered Cake Pans (6", 9", and 12" will work great)
• 3-5 empty egg cartons

Instructions:

1. Bake and cool the cakes as directed. Frost the cakes using an offset spatula and a pastry bag if needed. Set the cakes aside.
2. Spread a thin layer of edible clear gel onto each butterfly and carefully fold them slightly in the middle. Let them dry in the egg cartons so that the wings will dry sticking up. Repeat this step with all butterfly shapes or as many as you want for your cake.
3. Stack the cakes using cake boards or other cake stands.
4. Carefully affix the butterflies to the frosted cake with a dab of edible clear gel. Hold each butterfly in place for a minute to ensure it sticks to the cake. Press them into the icing slightly if necessary.
