Butterfly cake

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A butterfly cake is a cake made from a simple fairy cake. The tip of the fairy cake is carved out with a spoon, and cut in half. Then, butter cream, whipped cream or other sweet filling (e.g jam) is spread into the hole. Finally, the two cut halves are stuck into the butter cream to look like butterfly wings. The wings are often decorated using icing to form various patterns.
