Butterfly Cake




Butterflies, butterflies and more butterflies! I wanted to do butterflies all over this cake and make it very pretty for my teenage girl. It didnt' turn out too formal but she loved it--that's all that matters to me! And, her brothers enjoyed the candy, so it was great!

I used white chocolate covered pretzels for the wings and sour gummy worms for the body, slicing part way down and spreading apart to make the antennas. I frosted the whole layered cake white and added sprinkles for more color.

If I were to do it again (and have more time) I would add flowers and/or leaves and do a light pink frosting so the butterflies would show up better.
