No, it is cultivated or grown so that it can be processed into the yeast used in baking, but yeast is pretty much every where. The white film on cabbage, red grapes is yeast.

You forgot to melt the butter then you accidentally mixed it to your ingredients?
It would depend on what you were making, how much butter and how important it is to the whole recipe. If it is broken up enough it may be all right after it is cooked or there may be wet, greasy spots in the finished product.
How can you plate a selection of petits fours to guest?
Plating, or presenting, a selection of petits fours to guests can be very simple or very elaborate. A single lovely plate can be sprinkled with powdered sugar or any edible flower petals (such as miniature rose petals or violets) and the petits fours arranged simply on that. A lacy paper or foil doily may be used on the plate, and a larger lacy napkin or doily can disguise a less than beautiful plate. Plan for two or three little cakes per guest, plus three extra so the plate will not empty. Another excelent presentation might use a two- or three-teired dessert tray, in which case no doily is needed. Either type of plate, with or without doily, may be garnished with mint leaves, a few perfect strawberries or other tiny colorful fruit.

Tablespoons. 16 tablespoons in a cup. 3 teaspoons in 1 tablespoon. 1/3 cup would be 5 Tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon. If you don't have the tablespoon, use the 1/4 cup and guess at 1 and 1/2 of them. There is some margin for error in every recipe.
