Requirements

1. Flower paste or modelling Mexican paste
2.  Corrugated Sponge
3. Butter fly cutters
4. Rolling pin
5. Petal base
6. Cornstarch or icing sugar for dusting

Method

Dust the work surface with corn flour or icing sugar. Roll out a thin layer of flower paste and then place it over a butterfly cutter which is already greased with petal base. Roll over the sugar paste so as to get sharp edges .Place the cutter vertically and press the plunger to emboss the butterfly and .The butterfly will also be pushed out by the pressure from the plunger. Let the butter fly dry in the grooves of the sponge or an M-shaped card board. Colour or sprinkle glitter when dried.
