I included lemon bars for an extra sweet treat. I made homemade cream cheese frosting because I don’t like the flavor of shortening based frostings. The middle and top layer were a yellow cake mix with a bit of food coloring added for the orange layer. For the pink layer I used a strawberry cake mix (I made the rest into cupcakes for the friend party). I made three 9″ round cakes in the three party colors. □ The frosting didn’t blend from one color to the next and the chocolate butterflies that I piped out onto wax paper didn’t stand out as I had hoped, but it tasted good! I guess you need to actually have some cake decorating skill in order to get what’s in your head. Unfortunately, the vision in my head didn’t come out of the piping bag all by itself. I had such grand visions of a perfect cake. Then I just added a 2″ printed butterfly taped over the logo of the bottle. So, let’s start with the dessert party: Soda:įor the beverages I purchased Strawberry and Orange Crush for the pink and orange colors and Jarritos pinneaple for the yellow (it is a Mexican soda and can be found on the ethnic food aisle). I held two different parties – one for the family to come for dessert and another for little friends. The food and desserts were equally fun and they were delicious! I looked for items that either fit the butterfly theme or the color theme – that way they would all coordinate.
