You've done a WONDERFUL job of illustrating this craft, you've made it very accessible. Is there a substitute for the wire and tape to make it truly edible? It just seems like a lot of extra effort to make it out of rice paper but still not edible. Excellent video, great editing, thoughtful presentation.

@floreacakes 2 жыл бұрын

Thank you for your kind comment. As an option, you can use a lollipop stick for the base, you can even pit a small candy inside to make it edible. I showed this method here: astashkinacakes.com/wp-flower/

@floreacakes 3 жыл бұрын

Hi! Wafer Paper is easy to store in a dust-free dark place. Usually I place my flowers in food containers and keep them in a cabinet. I have some flowers for almost 3 years and they are still fine. And in this video I will talk you through the placement on the cake part.
