Beautful butterflies!


Hey! I have a feeling you like cup cakes! So I'm introdcing Beautiful butteflies! You will need red & pink colored melting chocolates, plus milk chocolates, brown icing, a couple of toothpicks, wax paper, and your own butterfly pattern.  Put the chocolates in a baggie and melt them in the microwave.  Put the pattern under wax paper.  Cut the tips & squirt it onto the wax paper where the pattern is.  Use toothpicks to swirl the colors together.  When the antanne dry stick on a white frosted cupcake.  Put the wings on as shown in the picture.  Squirt the chocolate icing to make circles for the body.  Sprinkle different colored sprinkles on the wings and whala!!  There ya go!  Have fun!  I took these into my class and they loved them so hopefully you do to.
