Five Star Reviews: | 73% Beautiful cake addition! March 18, 2017 These butterflies are beautiful. They were the perfect finishing touch to my daughter's requested rainbow unicorn butterfly birthday cake, she was blown away. Reading some other reviews, I expected the butterflies to be brittle and break easily, I did not find this to be the case. Handled carefully, they adhered nicely to the cake with a small dab of buttercream frosting, and are pliable enough that if you push on the center body piece firmly, you can make the wings appear bent without breaking the butterfly. Showstopping, glorious & easy! December 1, 2016 WOW. I could not be happier with these gorgeous butterflies! Wanting to make my mother's birthday cake extra special, I stumbled across these and they did not disappoint. They were very easy to bend into a fluttering shape - my advice is to be gentle with them and to open the package about half an hour before you intend to use them. I think being exposed to the natural moisture in the air allows them to absorb just enough to be pliable - again, be gentle and do not try to bend them too far - while still staying crispy. The colors were GLORIOUS - bright and cheerful.After applying them to the cake (so easy - I just pressed them slightly down into the buttercream), several hours passed before we actually ate the cake and they stayed perfect the entire time. I was impressed. Once the cake was served, we ate them and they really don't have any flavor at all - just a crisp texture. After being refrigerated under saran overnight, they did go flat, as expected, but were still beautiful and didn't leach color into the frosting.I highly recommend these butterflies - they are showstopping and so easy to use. They make even the most humble cake mix look like a professionally made pastry. I will definitely buy these again. Awesome! September 17, 2016 These are very cool. They arrive packed flat and stacked. So make sure you keep them away from moisture (including your fridge). Some reviewers commented that they taste gross. Edible means it won't harm you. It doesn't mean it tastes good. These kinds of products are usually made from 'paper' made of potato or rice starch. So not meant to taste good but also not going to harm anyone. They were stiff but not quite so brittle that I couldn't fold them to make them look like a real butterfly would. They were amazingly cool and fun. I used only on cream cheese frosting so far and they didn't dissolve or bleed at all. Once the cake was eaten, I left them out on a plate to see how long they lasted and they never wilted or melted. Oh, and these were much smaller than I expected based on the pic advertisement. Still worked great for me but if you need a certain size make sure you check the specs. You need these. July 2, 2016 If you are thinking of mayyyyybe buying these, DO IT. These little butterflies are awesome, the colors are beautiful, and they are ridiculously easy to manipulate. I'm trying to think of a reason to buy more. Can I work them in to my son's first birthday party? Can I top my church covered supper dish with them? Lasagna and butterflies moghy be gorgeous... HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY! December 10, 2014 I LOVE THESE ! They came to my house a few days after I ordered them. I ate one and DO NOT RECOMMEND it ! :) Will be ordering more soon ! Butterflies Forever August 25, 2012 I ordered one set of each, a package of the large and one of the small butterflies, and had more than enough to decorate the three tiered cake for my daughter's engagement party. The colors and patterns were vibrant and varied. The butterflies looked like miniature watercolor paintings. They were easy to attach to the frosted cake with a dab of frosting that I applied with a toothpick. My only concern was that the packaging stated, "Do not refrigerate." As a result I didn't apply them until just prior to serving, which took away from other hostessing duties.If I had been more organized, I would have contacted the company prior to decorating the cake to find out if refrigerating the decorated cake for a short time would affect the appearance of the butterflies. Based on the leftovers that we put in the refrigerator overnight (on homemade buttercream frosting) the butterfly colors did not "bleed" but they did look a little "limp" after about 10 hours.Also, don't forget to inform your guests that the butterflies are edible. Most of ours thought they were finely patterned paper ones cascading up one side of the cake to encircle a faux engagement ring at the top. | 78% SUGARCRAFT CUTTERS AND PLUNGERS September 1, 2015 Great cutters and plungers 33 in total, 10 different designs, giving you 3 to 4 of each cutter or plunger design. These are exactly as I expected. Pretty sturdy too. FUN AND PRETTY September 12, 2014 SO MUCH FUN.......Revived this today and have spent the last 2hrs just making flowers and butterflies!Very Easy and fun.Release is exact ...LOVE THIS PLUNGER SET!!!!! Great Product...Fast Shipping April 7, 2014 I LOVE my plunger cutters. A few of them are not actually plungers and one of my plungers were broken when it arrived. However, I'm okay with the products and did not notify the seller about the broken plunger as I felt I got my money's worth from the other products that were not broken. I sat down and used each plunder/cutter and had so much fun. I kept the cut pieces to make a shape chart. This was such a steal that I had two other cake decorators order from this company. Also, they arrived way faster than I expected considering the company is not in the USA. Great for crafts March 31, 2014 Made already a bunch of gum paste flowers and butterflies and leaves ... Great combination. Love the hole set and recommend to anyone |
Four Star Reviews: | 11% This decoration makes the cake look so pretty and they are very easy to use August 30, 2017 This decoration makes the cake look so pretty and they are very easy to use. 4 out of 5 only because I was hoping the sizes would vary. FYI - they do not have any taste. Edible butterflies July 22, 2017 These were beautiful (and edible) for my daughter's birthday cake. However, they are not exactly tasty. They taste like plain rice cakes. I definitely recommend them, but don't expect them to taste like cotton candy.😉 Beautiful and a big hit with the kids! June 6, 2017 The butterflies arrived in a timely manner and were very easy to apply to the cake. They also looked incredible! It was a hit to be able to pluck off and reapply each kid's chosen butterfly to each piece of cake. They are edible but taste neutral, as they are just made of potato starch... but I told the kids it was good luck to make a wish eat them. I do recommend waiting until the day of the party to apply them, though, as they absorb some moisture while they sit there. I applied the butterflies the night before and hid the cake in the oven for maximum surprise. In the morning, the wings were a little curved (not too bad). Anyway, would definitely order again. Not exactly as pictured May 15, 2017 Some of the butterflies were too dark so I didn't use them. Easy to use, I folded them back and used a small dab of buttercream to attach them to fondant. I live in a humid climate so wafer paper products tend to not dry out on me that bad. Pretty, not sweet May 16, 2014 I ordered a small set and a larger sized set. They just arrived, and I am happy with them overall. I was expecting them to taste sweet, but my daughter says they taste like a "stinky old rotten shoe." She is nearly eight and given to hyperbole, however.Taste: A little bitter. I thought they would be made of some kind of sugar paper, but they have the taste and texture of edible rice paper (although they are actually made of potato starch.) I believe whatever ink/colorant is used makes them a little bitter.Color: They are not as bright and the detail is not as sharp as the pictures on Amazon. The blue is quite bright as is the yellow, but the red in particular seems muted. They look like they were printed on some kind of specialty printer and then stamped/cut out. Remember printing a photograph on a home printer in the early 90s? That's a pretty good approximation of image color and quality. That said, they are quite pretty, especially arranged together. They are only printed on one side. The back is white/off white.Flexibility: I haven't figured out how to bend the wings more than a tiny bit without breaking the butterfly in half.Shipping and Packaging: they shipped in a plastic baggie inside a stiff plastic package inside a cardboard envelope. They were in perfect shape and arrived four business days after ordering from ZIP Code 91770 in Rosemead, CA.Ingredients: "wafer paper: potato starch, vegetable oil, water, vanilla, food color"Shelf life: They appear to have a pretty long shelf life. They say "do not refrigerate."I would recommend these to friends and by them again. Edible butterflies April 2, 2014 Edible, paper thin set of pre cut butterflies. Some of the colors are a bit more subdued than the pictures shows. My 4 yr old grandson immediately wanted to eat one, they are not sweet at all, which is ok with me. I got these to put on Easter cupcakes, and will use them for that purpose. I am not that talented at decorating with frosting, so these offer me a different choice. Over all I like them, and appreciate that this kind of thing can be purchased by people like me. | 10% Exactly as shown January 29, 2015 I like the set, don't get me wrong. My only issue is the lack of diversity within the cutters. It was exactly as shown, so I don't have a ton to complain about. I like that this set has so many different options January 17, 2015 I like that this set has so many different options. The quality is about what I would expect, but some of the plungers stick and aren't really effective. Overall, I am happy with the purchase. very good set!! November 3, 2014 Awesome tools! I received 33 pieces as pictured. There are 2 cutters that are the same but the rest are different. For the price I am completely happy!!!!! |
Three Star Reviews: | 8% DULL COLOR September 17, 2017 Dull in color not as pictured but they workedI put them on top of mini cupcakesNo taste very bland Three Stars June 9, 2017 Cute but very thin and flimsy butterflies. butterflies are smaller than they look in picture. They were ok, but not what the picture shows ... June 6, 2017 They were ok, but not what the picture shows. butterflies were flat and not easy to fold (cracked and split) December 13, 2016 Per other reviewers, butterflies were flat and not easy to fold (cracked and split); tasted nasty. But looked lovely on my daughter's cake and she was very happy, so I can't complain too much. They are pretty and my daughter loved seeing them on her cake December 2, 2016 I was expecting these to have more of an angle to them. I envisioned the wings would or could be propped up a little to give it a 3D effect, but they did not do that as well. They are more flat. They are pretty and my daughter loved seeing them on her cake. | 7% Ok for the price, but some are broken January 28, 2016 It's very cheap, so given the price it's ok I guess. The quality is pretty poor. There are frayed extra plastic pieces still stuck to the cutting edge on most of the pieces that need to be individually and CAREFULLY removed if you want a nice smooth edge to your items. Also several arrived with pieces of plastic broken off so they're not useable. One of the broken spring devices I was able to fix. Really it's pretty terrible quality, but overall most pieces work ok after you trim them up. For $7.00 it's fine. Good price though for quantity May 8, 2015 There are a lot of pieces, but this came in a big clear bag with no instructions. We had to look on-line to figure it out. Good price though for quantity. Worth the gamble but Buyer Beware... February 3, 2015 Technically-I'd give it 3 1/2 stars. First up- you have to remember these are really cheap and for the price it's a good buy. For most of the sets, I see no difference in quality from the overpriced ones through actual polymer clay brands.(except they probably have better quality control) I bought these to use for polymer clay. Keep in mind a 3 piece set of one of these shapes would be $3-4 bucks a piece. That said- it's a really good set. The title for the product is misleading, NOT all of the cutters have plungers. There's a few that doesn't, but I don't think it matters- the shapes lend themselves to removal easy. The only con is the mini heart shapes, which I was seriously bummed about- I love hearts. They were broken and the "plunger" part of the cutter is really rough plastic. Rendering the tiny heart shapes useless, as it pops apart the second you try to use it- and with it being that tiny- I'll just stick to my metal cutters for that size. Not sure why there was an issue- because the mini star and flower shapes work beautifully. That said- as much as I wanted the heart shapes to work- it's not worth the hassle to exchange or whatever and probably get the same quality. Long story short? If the shapes are appealing to you- it's an AWESOME buy. I didn't have to wait a month for it to ship from China like a lot of the good deals on these type of cutters. It's worth the gamble on these. I'd recommend them with a "Buyer Beware" sticker. :D You get what you pay for on this one. January 15, 2015 These are not a durable as other plunger cutters that I have purchased but the over all assortment is nice. Not quite as described/pictured December 15, 2014 My set did not contain the carnation cutters, instead my set included more daisy cutters (just like the plungers). So yes, overall it is a good deal, but it looks like each package varies. You may not get what you see/expect. |
Two Star Reviews: | 3% These are very small and dull. The size is about 1 February 14, 2017 These are very small and dull. The size is about 1.5" high by about 2" wide. In the photo, they look much larger in the photo. I expected them them to fit larger than my palm, hopefully as big as my hand. but they only fit in the center of my palm. Pretty, but didn't work out February 8, 2016 Nice concept, however when I tried to place them on the cake, they snapped in half, almost every single one. Maybe I wasn't doing something right... But I'd never know because no instructions came with them. Paper crap dull colors April 2, 2015 Flimsy, cheap toppers, and it does not include any pins to place butterflies on the cake. would work great as a flat image on cake or cupcake but ... March 6, 2015 Should have realized that since these are made of a rice paper material, there is no way to recreate this look. would work great as a flat image on cake or cupcake but they melt into it and wont look 3D like this image. They are also much smaller than they look in this picture. it must be a very tiny two tier cake they are on. Some are beautiful colors and some are lack luster. Could work well for a different project but i was hoping to recreate the photo. Too bad Not as vibrant or pretty as seen here September 28, 2014 Not as vibrant or pretty as seen here...could have been a little thicker. when bent they would break in half | 3% 3 pcs missing. May 13, 2015 The only reason why I purchased this set, was because I needed a butterfly plunger cutter that this "33 pcs" set supposed to have. The description says 33 Pcs and on the picture you can see 33 Pcs and 3 of those are the butterfly's, but when I received the set it came only with 30 pcs and what I needed was missing, the 3 butterfly pcs. not a qood quality, when you push it the ... January 21, 2015 not a qood quality, when you push it the handle and all the springs jumps out, and some don't even have the handel. Some of the plungers are broken. Looking to return ... January 20, 2015 Some of the plungers are broken. Looking to return back to sender. This is unfortunate because I was really excited about this purchase. Several pieces with missing plungers! November 26, 2014 I bought this set specifically for the snowflake designs. Stupidly I didn't check the contents when I got them and therefore the night before my daughters birthday I discovered I couldn't decorate her cake! All the snowflake cutters were without the plungers, also 3 more flower sets were missing plungers too. Most of the designs are pretty but the snowflake design was very disappointing- more flower than snowflake. |
One Star Reviews: | 5% Not impressed July 17, 2017 These arrived cracked but I used them as best I could. They did not hold up and ended up sticking to the buttercream, no longer "3-D". The kids did enjoy eating the butterflies! One Star June 12, 2017 Every single butterfly in the pack was broken right down the middle. I would never order these again. They were pretty but not edible at all June 10, 2017 They were pretty but not edible at all. They were gluey and nobody wanted to eat any so in the trash they went. As a decoration they were good, though. One Star May 28, 2017 Are too thin, the wings are instantly lowered and can not go for a moment to the refrigerator Disappointed September 1, 2015 Colour is dull, appear no where close to the photo shown. Thin and cheap looking, yet selling at this expensive price. Totally disappointed. Will not use it at my best friend's cake. Maybe save it later for tea party or sth less important. Rip off July 29, 2014 I was completely disappointed with this purchase. They look nothing like the picture. The colors are washed out, the butterflies were sent flat and did not bend well, A total rip off!! | 2% I purchased this plunger set and was initially pleased with what I received November 2, 2015 I purchased this plunger set and was initially pleased with what I received. However, after having washed the product before the first use, the springs inside the plunger mechanism all rusted. Now, they cannot be used without releasing rusty residue onto anything I cut. All of the plunger items in this set are basically useless once you wash them, which you should do before using them, so they are essentially useless. Very disappointing!! One Star February 25, 2015 I received it and 3 plungers were broken inside their wrapper! Very cheap product. |
