Day 4 - Butterfly Cupcakes

Here we have a butterfly cupcake topped with cream, jam, and icing sugar.

Photographer's notes:
When Jess initially talked about butterfly cupcakes my immediate instinct was to throw them in the air and catch a photo of them mid flight against a blue sky. While this may have been good for a giggle I was told that this would not do as the cream and icing sugar would not hold up until morning. Instead I grabbed a dainty, flowery plate and positioned the cupcake on it. Jess repositioned it to show off its best angle and I suggested we replace one of the wings. Photoshop wise the jam has been brightened slightly and the recorded colour of the cream has been toned down (it came out very yellow which seems to be a common problem when photographing whipped cream).
