Black Butterflies

I woke up this morning with a strong visual of black butterflies, and well, when inspiration hits there is no stopping it =D and here is the result:

I am so pleased with this one, everything just worked out brilliantly from start 'til finish =D It is a sponge cake filled with raspberries in whipped cream and rasberry jam. I used diluted orange juice to moisten the cake. Topped it with sugar cream and white marzipan whitened with Wilton's White-White icing colour. The butterflies are black sugar paste. Very happy now and off I go to serve my impatient kiddos some cake =D
