Butterfly Cupcakes

One thing about being off work for Easter is that it gives me ample opportunity to practice my baking.

I had lots of fondant icing left over which was rapidly drying up so I rolled some out and cut circles with a cookie cutter.

I then squeezed all the left over coloured icing together and then re-rolled it and cut out the butterflies.  This gave them an interesting marbled look. I dusted them with shimmer and added icing dots round the edge.

Simple yet effective.
