Bees!

We made a beehive cake for my father in law’s birthday tomorrow and it came out adorable. We got the pan for the cake at Williams Sonoma. I got the buttercream recipe and the poured fondant glaze recipes from my cupcakes book. If anyone is interested in the recipes I can post them but for now, I wanted to get the pics up here. The bees are made of white chocolate, tinted yellow. their wings are just sugar taken to the Hard Crack stage and then spread on some parchment.
