OMG this brings back memories. I remember making these as a child, with my Mum - had forgotten all about them. Thanks for sharing, and bringing back some wonderful memories. Shall make some more now ha ha.
If you want to place one on top of a Christmas cake I would wrap the wire in something (eg cling film wrap) so that it is not in contact with anything edible. If the icing is moist at all the colour may run out of your flower. All I can suggest is that you try if you want to but just be aware of the potential issues.
To be honest I have only ever made them with wire. You could try using strong thread to make the flower and then gluing on a stem. Pipe cleaners would work too as they have wire through them. 😀
You could try gluing the folds together but I think that would take a very long time and may well not be successful. On my website I have some other paper flower tutorials grouped together.

Can I use it for Christmas cake?
If you want to place one on top of a Christmas cake I would wrap the wire in something (eg cling film wrap) so that it is not in contact with anything edible.

How long does the wire need to be?😅
It just needs to wrap around your paper at the centre but I recommend making it a few inches long to also form the stem. 😀
What if you don't have wire
To be honest I have only ever made them with wire. You could try using strong thread to make the flower and then gluing on a stem. Pipe cleaners would work too as they have wire through them. 😀
@@ChristinesCrafts because I keep struggling

You can make one by just stapling it
I use pipe cleaners!! Just like wire and a LOT cheaper 🎉
Mine turned out really bad 😢
Oh no. I wonder what went wrong. Can you identify what went wrong or were you struggling on a step?
