Sweet and Happy Homemade Butterfly Birthday Cake

I made this Butterfly Birthday Cake for my daughter’s first birthday. I used 2 different flavors for the cake, lemon and cherry cake. I poured the lemon in first in two small round cake pans dividing the lemon batter evenly between the two pans and then I poured the cherry batter on top and marbled it using a knife. The remaining batter I used to make 3 jumbo cupcakes ( for the butterfly body).

I then cut the round cakes in half to make two wings on each side, laid it out on a large tray and started to decorate. I used store bought icing and homemade icing to get the right consistency, use icing gel and sprinkles as well and 2 pipe cleaners for the antenna. This cake was really easy to make, really yummy and took no time at all.

Can’t wait for my son’s birthday to come cause I’m taking on a Spongebob Squarepants cake!
