Can I have an opinion please?
I'm making cake pops for a bridal shower where the theme is purple butterflies. I was going to make between 120 and 150 pops and make a huge styrofoam wedding cake to stick them in. Each tier is a different flavor, and I wanted to have a butterfly sort of floating above the layer, with a sign saying the flavor. What size butterflies should I go for? There are 3" ones and 5" ones. I'm afraid the 3" will be too small but the 5" are too big. I love this one, but it only comes in 5"
Does anyone have any opinions? Thanks!
ETA: I measured and it looks like the butterfly on the screen is actual size on my screen...5 inches across.

i love the one in the picture.
i think the 5" is a better bet because that's a LOT of cake pops. it's better a little bigger and easy to see than a little smaller and harder for the guests to see and read.
i love the idea
can't wait to see pictures!

Re: Can I have an opinion please?
I love it too, but I got scared it would look TOO big on the cake. So I went with this one (the purple)
It is 4.25" across, so it is till big, but a little smaller than the first one.
ETA: Plus, I love this one is on a metal clip, so I don't have to glue anything and the bride can take it off afterwards and put it wherever she wants.

Thanks. I liked these a little better because they look more like real butterflies. The other ones are actually for little girls' rooms, and I was afraid it would look too "little kid" for a bridal shower. But I loved the pearls since I want to put pearls on the styrofoam cake.
