Flowers on a cake.

Daughter requests fresh flowers (roses) on wedding cake.
Is it advisable to have some sort of holder (with water) or do you just lay the flowers on the icing ?
Any help appreciated !

Dear Julia,

 

I'm afraid we are not the best people to ask this sort of thing.  We only deal witrh artcficial flowers and so don't have much experience using real flowers, i think your best bet would be to contact a cake maker to see how they would do it, there are pleanty of them online and i'm sure they would offer advice on this.

I know alot of people do lay artificial floowes onto the cake, but with real ones, i imagine you wouldn't want the flowers juices to leak onto the icing.  I think there may be some sort of holder for them but i'm not sure what. 

I'm sorry we couldn't be of more help.

 

Regards

Kirsty

Hi I make wedding cakes and with answer to your question about putting real roses on a cake, you need to use a posy pick, these can be bought for a few pence from a cake decorator supplier,
