Well it is time I had a go with a piping bag..... Just simple star shapes but still it is my first try. The cake I made is chocolate sponge made with a Victoria sponge mix but re-placing 1oz of flour for 1oz of cocoa powder. The filling was a chocolate buttercream as were the stars I piped on the top. Unfortunately I didn't make quite enough so I couldn't decorate the whole surface of the cake with rings of stars.
Once I finished the piping, I popped the cake in the fridge to cool the buttercream a little, as it had been warmed by my hands in the bag a little too much.
While that was cooling I tried my hand at actually decorating some butterflies properly for the cake. I know I did some last week but I didn't spend much time on them.
