I got this idea in my head, and I really couldn't get past it, so I just went ahead and brought it to life. I'll probably post close ups of each one later, but for now; Group Pic!

So these are lemon cakes, all covered with fondant and decorated with royal icing. It's the first time I've made royal icing from scratch (super easy) and now that I'm thinking about it probably the first time I've ever really used royal icing at all. Lots of learning throughout this project. Anyways, the piping is a bit messy but it's all g.



Atop the lemon cakes are butterflies made of toffee and dark chocolate. This was the real experiment, I haven't been able to find any toffee butterflies and I wanted pretty ones that let the light through. It took some trial and error, and there are definitely some things I would change next time I do these, but overall I am thrilled with how pretty they turned out.
