Mini 🦋 Butterfly 🦋 Cakes

Over the holidays i got treated to some amazing baking tins that i've been itching to try out but i really did not get the time so when i got some time, i did not waste a chance!!


My first instinct was to make bread rolls in the shape of the butterflies but when i got to the kitchen i could only find self-raising flour so i had to go back to the drawing board. i found a swiss roll recipe that used self-raising flour and all i thought of was combining the recipe with the butterfly tins to get mini butterfly cakes!!




So i made the swiss roll batter and then poured it into the butterfly tins, baked them and now i had these small butterfly shaped cakes



Butterflies are quite colorful and i had to find a way of incorporating that into my "butterflies". So i made some frosting and tried to make it into as many colours as i could. Then it was time to let my imagination take centre stage and come up with designs for the "butterflies".
I came up with kind of multi colored effect, stripes, a subtle kind and a playful kind.


This is a great party treat especially for kids parties they just lighten up the mood! They could be themed according to the party or just playing around with different kinds of butterflies.
