Comments

These lovely little cakes can be made up as butter fly cakes too:
Spoon out top of cake fill with whipped cream, cut in half the top, place either side to make wing design, sift with CSR icing sugar.
Or make up different coloured icing with icing sugar, sprinkle with hundreds & thousands or place jelly beans on top made into faces.
Great for school lunches and small enough for the children to help ice.
