You are sooo amazing!!!!!!! Question: I’ve done something similar before but when I attached it to my buttercream cake, the petals became soft and droopy.. do you only work with wafer paper on fondant cakes because of the moisture in the buttercream???
i hope this is addressed...really an issue if flowers are attached to buttercream, condensation and all...
Hi there! So sorry I just saw your comment now. Yes Wafer Paper Flowers can be placed on buttercream, though you will need to take extra care of the environment. The reason why the petals become soft and droopy is because there is too much moisture (Wafer paper is sensitive to moisture), it means that your buttercream is condensating and is releasing moisture. However, if kept at an ideal temperature (& humidity - that means low humidity and air is dry) and your buttercream is not condensating/ melting (even the tiniest bit of moisture affects wafer paper), your wafer paper will stay up well. :) However if all conditions are too hard to achieve, the safest bet will be to place it on a fondant cake. Hope this helps!
Just replied above! :)
Another tip: Apply melted cocoa butter (a medium that doesn't melt when it comes in contact with moisture) at the area where your wafer paper flower will touch your buttercream cake and it will prevent the part of the wafer paper flower from melting :)
@@winifredkristecake_ yes thank you so much for replying! :)
Love all your work Winifred. Thank you for sharing and great that you're now on You Tube xx
Yay! We have more coming up in the next few months so stay tuned!
Thank you so much for this tutorial, it certainly beats wiring all the leaves individually! Very helpful 😃
Fabulous! Good to know! :)
It’s look so nice!!! 😍Thanks for great sharing~~ Look forward for more tutorials video!☺️
Awesome!! Good to know you enjoyed it! :)
Thanks so much for this... I have been individually wiring each leaf this is going to save so much time
Perfect! Happy to hear this :) We all could use some time savers!
I love your work. I have been an avid fan. Hope you can make more tutorials like this as well as sugar flower detailed tutorials.
Thank you!! I am so flattered :)
We will definitely be sharing more here on this platform, we are sharing a lot more here soon: www.learn.winifredkristecake.com - hope to see you there!
Great video and really fun to watch！Thank you very much for sharing. 💕
Yay! Thank you! x
Wow it's really a nice tutorial and i will definitely try this!! ♥️♥️♥️♥️ Thanks for sharing

Will do!! ♥️♥️
Great 😊
Thank you! :)
I love your work and sharing, thank you💕
Happy to hear that! Thank you! x
Hi there! I’m so excited to try this out. The link for the floral tape is clear but in the tutorial I think your using white? Can you use the dust on the clear?? Thank you
Hi there! So sorry I just saw your comment, i just changed the link to white. you cannot dust on clear. Apologies about that.
Here you go: amzn.to/47ljapS
Thank you for this wonderful tutorial!! Your work is absolutely gorgeous!
Thank you so much! So flattered :)
Super
Thank you for this video..😊
yay! Happy to know! :)
that was so helpful ❤️
Glad it was helpful! :)
Thank you, it's so useful 😍, I love it💗🌺
That's great! So happy to hear! :)
Those are beautiful, thanks for sharing. Is water paper the same as rice paper ?
You're welcomed! No, wafer paper is different from rice paper.
Thank you so much for your tutorial! 💕🌸 It is really helpful, and it looks so easy when you make those beautiful leaves.
The only thing that at least I find a little disturbing, no offence, is the music in the backround. It is sometimes difficult to hear what you are saying. It would be more peaceful just to listen to you, and to watch and study your lovely work.
thank you! :)
Thank you for sharing this tutorial. It's greatly useful.. Btw, where to get that foam pad?
Of course! I got mine customised and they aren't available now, but you can get a really similar one here: www.amazon.com/109SE014-Pad-Sugar-Gumpaste-Modelling-Standard/dp/B007QL87R4
Love your content!
Priscilla Er 😘😘😘
Hi Winifred! May I ask where can I get a cake decorating foam pad like yours?
Hi! I got mine customized in Korea, but you can get one from here too: www.amazon.com/KALAIEN-Fondant-Shaping-Sugarcraft-Modelling/dp/B071NRNSHH/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=celpad&qid=1585016151&s=kitchen&sr=1-1-catcorr
Hi~! Thank you so much for this! Note: I purchased your online classes and love it but the camera is sooo irritating at times because it's not close up on what you are doing or blocked by your hand. I wish it was more overhead view like this! Thanks for your hard work =]
Thank you for letting me know! I am happy that you like this! Regarding the course with IFIMADE, I will definitely feedback that to IFIMADE's filming team :)
@@winifredkristecake_ Thanks for sharing in making this and the tips and tricks as always! Ya I second to her comment and hope the ifimade filming can up more up close! Nevertheless, still love your teaching!
@@winifredkristecake_ i am planning to purchase your masterclass 2021 but hoping it was improved and even with a much closer view than this :) :)
@@anne_me1 Hi Anna, you can check out our masterclass playlist here on youtube and you will be able to see all the close up angles that are available in the masterclass. They're shot in HD so you will see the clearest details. Alternatively, you can also check out our leaning school for the sneak videos: learn.winifredkristecake.com/courses/Art-of-Sugar-Flowers-and-Cake-Design (Just scroll down ;))
Let us know if you have any other questions and we will be happy to help: info@winifredkristecake.com
Hi Winifred, thank you for the tutorial! I have a question, what kind of wire did you use? I can't seem to glue my leaves to the wire, it stuck to my fingers instead :(
Hi Penny! Just a normal floral wire that has a very thin layer of paper wrapped around it (the most common ones are white or green- in this case i am using the green one). As long as it is not purely wire that is unwrapped (silver).
@@winifredkristecake_ ah that explains it, the one I bought doesn't have the paper wrapping. Thank you so much Wini for responding, you are awesome! :)
@@penny4225 you're welcomed! happy to help. Glad we found out what was the issue :) Happy creating! and thank you so much for your kind words- I am so flattered!!
How do you decide when to use wafer paper instead of gumpaste?
Personally for me I know the different look wafer paper and gumpaste each provides, so depending on the kind of mood and design I am doing, I will use them accordingly. :)
Hi, i'm from Indonesia. I wanna ask you about vodka. Can i changes it with alcohol 70% ?? Thankyou..
Hi Dessy, 70% might not be the best choice as it would probably dry up too quickly, not as flexible as compared to a 40-50% alcohol content liquid, making it hard to make any natural looking impression/ indentations on the wafer paper.
@@winifredkristecake_ ok.. i see. Thankyou so much..🥰🙏
I have the volume up full on my phone and I cannot hear a word you are saying!!!
We didn't have a proper mic then for this video but all our subsequent videos have, and so are the upcoming ones ;) thank you for your feedback!
Hi .. what is wafer paper glue ? Your voice are so small 🙈🙈 barely hear your voice..
wafer paper glue is made up of wafer paper + water, we will be sharing a video in the upcoming months on how you can make it, so stay tuned!
Please los subtítulos en castellano 🙏
I really would have liked to listening to you a little bit louder, was trying to figure out your words.
We didn't have a proper mic then for this video but all our subsequent videos have, and so are the upcoming ones ;) thank you for your feedback!
Can i use something other than Vodka? Non-alcoholic? 🙏🏻
This depends on the climate you live in, if you live in a relatively dry climate, you may choose to substitute vodka with glycerin + water combination (try out the ratio yourself since every place is different, you may start with a 50:50 mix first). If you stay in a humid area, vodka is the way to go to allow your petals to dry up in time to build your flowers/ leaves. Hope this helps!
Where’s the sound?
What material do you use for the cornstarch puffer please.
You can consider a cheese cloth too :) I'm not quite sure how to describe this one I am using!
The audio is terrible.... too low.....
We didn't have a proper mic then for this video but all our subsequent videos have, and so are the upcoming ones ;) thank you for your feedback!
Thanks but voice too low.
Hey! Thanks for watching & for leaving a comment! Didn't had a proper mic back then when we were recording it :/ managed to invest in one after that ;) you will see it in the later videos!
Wish this video had an audio level you could actually hear.
I've fixed in in the subsequent videos :)
better no background music. Nice tutorial thank you
