Butterflies in Buttercream

Butterfly Drawing Cake

I decorated this little multi-tiered cake from a drawing that my niece made for me. Hers was so sweet that I thought it should taste that way, too.

my daughter did a drawing for me of how the cake should look like for her 7th birthday and i created a very similar looking cake to yours. my daughter was very surprised that i could bring her drawing to life, so to speak!
