    Lovely effect. I use WP for leaves in amongst sugar flowers. The airiness makes it perfect and more importantly is so much less weighty on a delicate cake. Thank you x

    Hello!! Well done, superb! I've watched a lot of your flower tutorial videos and you make really nice videos. I love the narration. But could you show how you assemble your flowers to the cakes? My curiosity is when you poke into the cake, do you simply stick into the cake itself? Do you bundle them? TIA!

    • @FinespunCakes
      @FinespunCakes  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    thank you very much for this beautiful tutorial, you are very good and I admire your work very much😍 I have a doubt ... which of the two sides of the wafer paper is the right one, the smooth or the rough side? Thanks a lot for the answer

    • @FinespunCakes
      @FinespunCakes  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I don't really pay attention to which side but I think people say the rough side is the side that should be up!

      Thank you! I recommend not putting it in the fridge. However, I did put wafer paper in the fridge and it only started losing its shape after 2 days at 75% humidity. You will have to experiment with your fridge!

    Do you need to prep the wires in any way before placing them into the cake? Or are they food safe already? Is there a brand you love? Thanks!

    • @FinespunCakes
      @FinespunCakes  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I know some people will just tape with non toxic floral tape, others like to use a small cocktail straw around the wire before inserting :) all my links are in the description box below the video

    Hi! If I wanted to add color to the waferpaper, when would I add it? I was thinking of using dry petal dust to create a light, airy blush color. Thank you!

    • @FinespunCakes
      @FinespunCakes  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      You definitely can add dust when the petals are dry! Alternatively you can add a very very tiny amount of colouring to the liquid you use to soften the wafer paper

    When you want to colour the leaves do you still brush them with the alcohol?
