The first update of many... Butterflies and weddings!

Here are some of the pictures that I was trying to get off of flickr... until I realized that they were indeed in a folder on my desktop... go figure.

So first up are the chocolates:
Butterflies

30 (thirty) 3-D, freehanded chocolate butterflies. They were made for a caterer (A Catered Affair, Las Cruces, NM) who needed a party favor for a 90 year-old lady's birthday party. Each butterfly and pedestal were individual packaged in a plastic cup and wrapped and tied.

Below is an image of the chocolate-covered (vanilla, actually) Oreo that I made and packaged as wedding favors for Kim & Mike O. With their wedding colors being pale yellow and pale blue, the hearts were shaded accordingly.

And next: their wedding cake! White & chocolate sour cream cake with Raspberry filling and Lemon Buttercream.

Lastly, since the blog title reads "Butterflies and weddings"... it would only be appropriate to include the following pictures. This cake was made for a ladies' member-guest tournament at Picacho Hills Country Club in June, with the theme... "Wedding Bells". Same cake as the wedding cake above (actually, the above wedding was in Aug., so they actually had the same cake as the one below, but anyway...) - white and chocolate sour cream cake with raspberry filling and lemon buttercream. The butterflies and tees around the bottom layer were made of candy as well.
