Review: Veined Butterfly Cutters

Last year I made a celebration cake for a 25th Wedding anniversary. Their original wedding cake had butterflies on it so I decided to invest in some new sugar paste cutters. I have since used them to make a few cakes, including a Cath Kidston inspired cake for my friend.

These are the cutters I purchased.

I found them really simple to use and they make a really pretty decoration. If you want to make them stand out from the cake as if they have just landed you can fold a piece of card in half and rest the cut out shape in it until it dries, then use a small blob of royal icing to attach to the cake. The only downside to them is that they are fiddly especially when you are using very thinly rolled sugar flour paste.


I bought mine on ebay for a few pounds but most cake shops also sell them.
