In this video I demonstrate how to create royal icing butterflies using 2 techniques.
In the 1st Piped Technique I pipe the wings of the butterflies on a piece of wax paper. With piped technique you can create realistic patterns using wet on wet decorating method. You need to let royal icing dry before you can shape it.
If you are short on time you can also make beautiful butterflies. In my 2nd technique I use a stencil and stiff royal icing. Stenciling technique is easy and fun. Place a stencil over a piece of wax paper and then spread a thin layer of stiff royal icing over it. Carefully lift up the stencil to reveal butterfly wings. You can then dip butterfly wings into sprinkles, dust it with edible jewel dust.
Once dry wings can be airbrushes, painted, or you can draw on them too.
To shape butterfly wings you need to make a tray. Fold a piece of a cardstock paper in half. Then fold each half in half again. Shape it into a zic zac profile.
Pipe a line with piping consistency royal icing. Attach 2 dry butterfly wings onto the piped line. Transfer it to a drying tray. And let dry overnight. Remove the wax paper and decorate a cake with pretty royal icing butterflies.
