Great tutorial! I'm really thankful when artists, such as yourself, share their techniques. I have a pastry degree, and have done a lot of cakes and desserts for people, however, I have not worked much with wafer or rice paper. Life is really busy right now and I was going to suck it up and order wafer paper butterflies online for the baby shower cake I'm doing for my daughter. I thought it would make things easier. The shipping (for a piece of wafer paper!) was more than the cost of the sheet of butterflies! Seriously, $25 for a sheet of printed butterflies, that I had to cut out and do all the things with. On top of that, the colors were not what I wanted, but I was going to try to make it work (by not using most of the product that I ordered). After watching your tutorial, I'm confident that I can make exactly what I want. Thank you!
Made some today and I ran out of time to make their little bodies so I just stuck them on the buttercream on the cake and it turned out just as pretty as a wanted for my best friends heavenly birthday. Blue butterflies is my sign designated to remind me she is still with me 🦋
This tutorial comes right when I need it! I'll be making a butterfly theme cake for a beautiful 16 year-old autistic girl whose mom wants her to spread her wings and be happy 💞 Thank you so much for this tutorial! Very beautiful butterflies! 🥰
Hello from Trinidad....way down in the Caribbean lol. I love how you take your time to explain every step. Came across this video just in time for a butterfly cake i have coming up. Thank you, I'll certainly try this method
This was so cool!! I recently started playing with rice paper and I have a wedding cake coming up for next weekend that is to be covered in flowers that I want to add a few butterflies to and I can't wait to try this!! Thank you so much!
I love your work! This is first time when i see your channel I was looking for some idea's for butterfly's. But I decided to have a look on all that you do and I was impressed. Clean worked, very good explained, amazing end result. Thank you for sharing ! I subscribe and I promise that soon I am going to try to practice your videos. Your sharing lookes like a master class.( for free). Thank you!
Omg 🥰 Thank you so much! All the filming and editing (on top of my other responsibilities) isn't the easiest, so it means the world to me to hear that! 💖💖💖 I'm so happy you're enjoying them! I can't wait to begin sharing more full tutorials again!
since they will be soft if you leave it in the fridge for long, can i put it in a zip lock bag to ensure that it will look good til the day i decorate the cake?
That's a really great question! Ugh. Unfortunately I don't have an answer. I just make them and set them aside. I'm not sure how it will be in a ziplock in the fridge. If you try, will you let us know? I'll let you know if I try! 💖
Bonjour vous faites de magnifiques tutos , j'adore et merci beaucoup pour vos partages , que dois je taper dans la barre de recherche pour trouver les pistils que vous utilisez car moi celle que je trouve ont une petite boule sur le bout et la tige n'est pas rigide comme vous c'est comme un fil donc sa ne tiendra pas pour l'enfoncer dans la pâte à sucre , merci beaucoup pour votre future réponse .
I've stored them for that long, but honestly, because it's rice paper, it may move around a bit the longer you leave them out. It wants to curl up just a bit. However far in advance you make them, I'd make sure to store them somewhere away from dust and sunlight so they don't catch the dust or fade. So maybe like a box. I hope that helps!
Great question! Silicone sheet is needed. I believe someone tried a glass pan and it worked. But the silicone ensures it doesn't stick. With parchment the problem is it will get wrinkly because of the liquid. I hope this helps!
These are so beautiful and your tutorial is simple but I'm having such a hard time cutting them out when they come out of the oven. Do I need to let them rest first? They keep folding over and sticking to each other and I end up scrapping the whole thing. 10 minutes may not be long enough?
Oh no! That's so frustrating! They're definitely going to be floppy with 10 minutes, we just have to try to manage them as best we can..... BUT If your wings are large or just way too floppy, try using an exacto knife to cut them out. I actually just made my last water color butterfly on IG using an exact knife to cut it out. This way you don't have to lift them off the mat and risk them folding over. If not, you can definitely try a bit longer in the oven (my oven might just run a bit hotter than yours), but check on them one minute at a time after 10 minutes. Because once they get too hard, there is no going back 😩 (I sadly speak from testing experience). I really hope they work this time!
@@FiveTwoBaker lol so i tried 4 altogether and I just had to find the right amount of time for my oven. They are drying now...can't wait to see how they turn out!
Definitely! It's a little tricky bc flowers have more shape. But I think as long as youre okay without having a botanically correct flower, it would look beautiful. 💕
I've never thought of using that! Sorry, but I have no idea how that rice paper works, so I can't advise. The rice paper I use here is the edible kind that is used for spring rolls. 💖
@@FiveTwoBaker Thank you, I do have your kind on my grocery list and hubby is about to go to store in a few, so I will be trying those as well. Thank you for responding, I know this was an older video. Have a nice day!
They sure can. I’d store them in a container so they don’t collect dust and they avoid moisture. The moisture will make them want to curl up a bit. I’ve kept mine out and they’ve curled just a bit, but it depends on climate. I’ve also noticed that my opaque butterflies (the ones I add cornstarch too) don’t curl at all when I leave them out. I hope this helps you some! 💖
The antenna are just the middle parts of the store bought stamens. They’re thin and sturdy, that’s why I used them. To keep them flat you can lay anything you have. I just popped some veiners on bc that’s what was closest to me at the moment.
Thank you! I’m so glad! If your rice paper is thick I’d start with that as a tester. Just soak it to see how it dries. If you go too thin, you run the risk of it cracking very easily bc the thinner the rice paper, the more brittle (or atleast that’s been my experience). My rice wraps feel a bit thick also, but I like that. Aside from that, I shop around for them at my grocery store and just grab from their selection. I’ll try and see if I can get you the brand I use.....I’m sure I still have some around. 💖
So beautiful 😍 !!! I tried them, they came out beautiful but mine didn't have the plastic look to them which is my favorite part. They looked more like glossy paper once dried. Possibly because I skipped the Glycerin? Thanks! Loved this video. So easy and simple to follow :)
Yay! I’m so glad!!! Hmmmm if you’re on IG send me a pic. I’d love to see. Especially since you said it looks different. I’m always curious to see how it plays out with other climates and such. Only if you want though! Either way, super happy you liked it!!! ❤️
These are so beautiful and would like to make them or at least start tonight...but I do not have a transparent silicone mat. Can I put it on parchment paper to be able to trace the butterfly drawing and then transfer it to the silicone mat to bake, or can I keep it on the parchment paper to bake?
Thank you! That's a good question. I don't use parchment paper because it shrivels when wet and so then my rice paper also shrivels. If yours doesn't do this, then you might be fine. Hope that helps! ❤️
@@FiveTwoBaker Hi thank you for your quick response, after multiple trial and errors ... The parchment paper did exactly that, it shriveled, my husband suggested a piece of glass, to which reminded me that I had a piece of tempered glass from when I did/do buttercream transfers. The only concern I had was that it would stick to well and not come off. We had success! 😊 Once it is baked though, I need to transfer it right away to the silicone mat or it will be really difficult to take off the glass. Although, just in case I will be investing in a new more transparent mat.
I get this question a lot. Here are my recommendations on what to look for & thoughts, because I'm not exactly sure why you can't use alcohol, so I'll toss out anything I can think of and hope it gives you options: Clear Lemon extract- like the type you would use in frosting or cakes, but it's 80% alcohol. Evaporex (bakers use this as a substitute for vodka)- 100% food grade alcohol. Baker's Spirits aka rejuvenators spirits aka edible paint dilutor - Also 100% food grade alcohol. Finally, Water - Downside is because it will take longer to dry, you risk your fondant absorbing it, thus getting sticky, shiny fondant. It works! But you have to be more cautious with your painting. Basically everything is some type of alcohol, but different places and countries sell it under different names. I hope this helps and you can work with one of these! ❤️
Honestly, I cannot say. I would not add the decor to the cake until it is being delivered, or on site. Rice paper is pretty sturdy once dry, but I imagine the temperature difference from the fridge, to outside would cause it to bend and warp faster. Long story short, I don't know from experience, but wouldn't recommend it.
Oh geez. I don't know them by that measure. When I purchase them I buy 26 gauge. That's how we measure here. I'm not sure about mm. 🤔 I hope the gauge number helps. 💖
Price is always a loaded question. You’ll have to factor, the detail of each butterfly. Price of the rice & materials you’re using for your area. Quality of your work. I wish I could answer. But, considering these are custom, handmade butterflies, they’ll be much more expensive than any machine made acrylic or paper ones you buy. Sorry I couldn’t answer.
Hi! They're like threads that have been stiffened and have a tip of color. What I use them for is the stiffened thread part. They're nice and thin, but sturdy enough to hold their weight. 💖
That’s a great question. I would keep it in a container so it doesn’t get dusty and doesn’t absorb moisture from the air, but I’ve been fine leaving these out for weeks. The worst that’s happened is their wings curl up a bit. But I imagine because it’s rice paper, the environment really plays a big part in the curling.

Thank you so much! That makes me so happy! ☺️❤️
How long in advance can I do them? Once done, can a store them from about 22 days/ one month?
I've stored them for that long, but honestly, because it's rice paper, it may move around a bit the longer you leave them out. It wants to curl up just a bit. However far in advance you make them, I'd make sure to store them somewhere away from dust and sunlight so they don't catch the dust or fade. So maybe like a box. I hope that helps!

Hi,
Would this work without the silicone sheet? Like can I use parchment paper instead? Or would it stick to that?
Great question! Silicone sheet is needed. I believe someone tried a glass pan and it worked. But the silicone ensures it doesn't stick. With parchment the problem is it will get wrinkly because of the liquid. I hope this helps!

Love this . I have made butterflies out of wafer papper but not rice papper. Must try.
Awesome! If you post to IG I’d love to see them! I think wafer paper is beautiful as well. But I love this translucent look 😍❤️.
These are so beautiful and your tutorial is simple but I'm having such a hard time cutting them out when they come out of the oven. Do I need to let them rest first? They keep folding over and sticking to each other and I end up scrapping the whole thing. 10 minutes may not be long enough?

Also can they be made a week in advance and how to store them?

Awesome! Thank you! What did you call the Antennas and what you used to keep the wings flat while the dried?

This is beautiful. Did you say bake it for 10 mins at the lowest temperature with the mat upside down? I.e the rice paper facing down ?
With the baking sheet upside down. Does that make sense? This way it’s as if the mat and rice paper are on a completely flat surface, no walls. 💖
Can’t wait to try this! Thanks for the tutorial! 💜
Definitely! I’m so glad! I hope you do try! 💖
Did you overlap two sheets of rice paper to make the butterfly stronger?
No, I don't, because I like the super thin look. But you definitely can! 🦋
