Hollie's Christening Cake!

Hollie's Christening Cake!
Hollie's Christening Cake! Hollie's Christening Cake!

A two tiered cake for Hollie on her Christening day, Hollie was 10 when she chose to be Christened, so her mum asked for a more grown up cake and really liked the white cake withe the butterflies that i made last year, so this is a two tier version and i think it came out beautifully! The top tier is a vanilla cake with jam and buttercream and the bottom tier is a pastel layer cake with vanilla buttercream. I hope you had a wonderful day Hollie!

Hi Emine,
The butterflies are fondant with some tylo added for strength. I used 2 different sized cutters and then dried them over folded card to get the open wing shape. When dried i dusted the centres with pink dust and then painted the tips with edible lustre paint. I used royal icing to make the body and to stick them to the cake!
