A Beginner's Guide to Making Wafer Paper Flowers | Cake Decorating Tutorial

[@floreacakes]

Hop you like this beginner-friendly step-by-step video on how to make these wafer paper flowers. Do you like loose organic looking arrangements or more structured?

[@MissD762]

Both are pretty but loose and organic wafer flowers are unique and stunning! You are an amazing talent!!

[@TheChubbs6977]

I love your videos, I recently purchased wafer paper to try flowers for cakes but it had no bumpy side. Is there a particular wafer paper you would recommend?

[@jyotsnaplathottam1295]

[@HoneyCrumb]

Such a great technique, Anna! I love the idea of creating petal sets that are all attached to each other and letting them dry before adding the center. It creates such lovely shapes and movement!

[@floreacakes]

Thank you! And it makes assembly so much faster.

Absolutely brilliant tutorial, thank you. I have a customer who wants white flowers on her wedding cake, so do I just leave the wafer paper as it is and just apply the conditioner. Please respond, thnaks.

[@floreacakes]

Yes, just use wafer paper conditioner and that's it. You can also add a touch of pearl color to make it shiny

Not that I know of. Glycerin helps wafer paper stay soft

This is easier to make than sugar flower! I wonder if you can use a veiner after coloring?

[@floreacakes]

Yes, you can. I have move tutorials on my channel showing how to do that too.

[@laurahall5218]

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]

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/

[@funcakesrentalandrealllc689]

How long will these flowers stay pliable ? I currently make only gumpaste flower but I LOVE the lightness of the wafer paper. My cakes are faux cakes and I ship them. Wondering how the flowers would ship ? Thank you , awesome video !!

[@floreacakes]

Wafer paper is so much lighter to work with and it ships beautifully. I have a video on my page about packing wafer paper flowers for shipping

[@funcakesrentalandrealllc689]

Thank you for the video. Can you refrigerate a cake with wafer flowers on it? Or is it better to place the wafer flowers on the cake when ready to present it?

[@floreacakes]

Yes you can! Check other videos on my channels - I have a few tutorials on how to do that safely

Can I use gumpaste instead of using candy melts or cocoa butter for my wafer paper flower?

[@floreacakes]

Please let me know, if you try!

[@Sidrahasan0404]

Hi Anna I was wondering if you had any tips or a video about how to store and how long you can keep wafer paper flowers love your videosAnd how do you actually attach them to the cake sometimes when they are a few inches away from the actual cake

[@floreacakes]

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.

[@monachirri-hamadeh5851]

Thank you for this amazing tutorial! I can’t wait to try these. Would you recommend wrapping the wire in green floral tape before inserting into a cake to look more realistic? Or are they normally left white to blend in with the cake?

[@floreacakes]

Thank you! It is a personal preference, I would use white floral tape to make it less noticeable.
