How to Make cake Wafer Paper Decorations | Marbling Effect

Watch how I stack, fill and decorate this fondant, blue marble, barrel cake with edible gold and wafer paper embellishments. I may remake the video with narration in the new year. It was not what I had originally planned.
As always, I'm happy to answer any questions in the comments box.
Thanks for watching :)

[@AwesomeCakeDesigner]

I'm so sorry for your loss Jessica. Your cake is so beautiful and I love how you make it in honour of your beloved Dad. ( May I ask which fondant you use please?)

[@JessicaSaleCakeDesign]

Thanks so much. Massa Ticino, this is is my go to fondant!

[@homebakedheaven1486]

I will remember your strength when I hit a really tough spot in the future. Thank you for posting your inspirational message. I'm using the marbling technique for the first time on my next project and have watched several different videos to prepare. BEST marbling effect video I've come across! Your technique takes it to the NEXT LEVEL :) Did you paint the gold onto the marble effect after? And also, I love the blue color you added to create the marbling, but I couldn't read the label?

[@JessicaSaleCakeDesign]

Thank you so much for your lovely comments. Yes, I painted the gold afterwards following the lines created by the marbling. The blue is Navy Blue by Colour Splash. Happy caking! :)

[@claudiasaraniecki9308]

Such a beautiful cake. And done while grieving; so sorry for your loss. Can such a cake be refrigerated?

[@JessicaSaleCakeDesign]

Thank you so much for watching. Personally, I never refrigerate fondant cakes because the condensation can cause problems and there is no need to in the UK climate unless using fresh fruit or cream. I know some people do refrigerate fondant cakes with success. However, it could cause the wafer paper to wrinkle and fall off the cake.

[@lettyhamilton460]

Very pretty and unusual cake

[@JessicaSaleCakeDesign]

Letty Hamilton Thank you for watching! xxx

[@kerriemyers31]

I have marbled many a cake but never quite like the way you do it, I love it. What did you use to stick your wafer paper with? I hope you have wonderful memories of your Dad and this is a fitting tribute to him what will be here for all to see. Much strength

[@JessicaSaleCakeDesign]

Thank you. Yes many great memories ❤️. I use clear edible glue and cocktail sticks to hold the pieces while drying, which are then removed.

[@ogunkan1]

Beautiful cake and so sorry for your loss. May I please ask what you mixed with the blue petal dust to paint the wafer paper? and what was the other liquid you applied on the wafer paper? Thanks

[@JessicaSaleCakeDesign]

I used vodka with the dust and edible glue to stock the wafer paper to the cake. Thanks for your lovely comments!

[@carolinewaldron3666]

Came across your video by chance. Lovely eye catching design. Your strength at such a difficult time is commendable. Sorry for your loss. Sure you Dad was proud of your talent. Keep going! You have a new subscriber 😉

[@JessicaSaleCakeDesign]

Thank you for such a lovely message ❤️

[@thesweetzlife]

Thank you what a beautiful cake. Sending healng love your way. Can you tell me what brand of petal dust and colors you usr, they were beautiful? Thank you in advance

[@JessicaSaleCakeDesign]

I mostly use Sugarflair. Thanks so much for watching!

[@mysugarcloud]

Sorry to hear about your loss. That’s a really beautiful cake. Can we use water in place of alcohol to color the sails ? Thank you

[@JessicaSaleCakeDesign]

Thank you for your lovely comments. Water will not dissolve the colours so well, you can use lemon juice as an alternative to alcohol. Although, rest assured all the alcohol will evaporate when dry, so it will be alcohol free.

[@ACakeStory]

Lovely! May I ask what did you use to stick the wafer paper to the fondant?

[@JessicaSaleCakeDesign]

Olivia Francesca, yes, edible glue. You can also use piping gel. X

[@valerie9709]

Hi Jess , for how long can we keep the cake already decorated in the fridge? Rice paper is not going to get wet/ soft? Thanks

[@JessicaSaleCakeDesign]

I never refrigerate as there is no need here in the U.K., unless using fresh cream or fruit. I wouldn’t recommend it as condensation may affect the wafer paper. If you have to refrigerate, apply the paper last minute, before presentation, perhaps. ❤️

[@tsweetmap1658]

Sorry about your dad..I hope you feel better now. Can I ask where did you buy that extra large silicone mat? The one you put on the table to roll out the fondant as well as the one when you turn it over ? It is very handy. love your cake X

[@JessicaSaleCakeDesign]

Thanks so much for watching! The mat is from Iced Jems Shop. You can find them online www.icedjemsshop.com/ ❤️

[@ELAINEDURAN_EE]

Question how long did you let your sails sit to dry and where?

[@JessicaSaleCakeDesign]

The sails didn’t take long to dry, as the atmosphere was dry that day. I just air dried them for about 30 minutes to an hour. They may take longer depending on humidity. You can also dry in the oven on the lowest setting which will take about 15 minutes. I’ve always air dried mine and would be very careful not to discolour the paper with too much heat, in the oven. Always test first! Thanks so much for watching!

[@Janetemitope]

Amazing Job!! I am so sorry about your dad! May his soul continue to rest in peace.

Thank you so much for watching xxx

[@rizwanapervaiz9777]

I am so sorry dear about dad cake is soooo beautiful and you also so sweet

[@JessicaSaleCakeDesign]

Thank you for watching and for your lovely comment xxx

[@prachiagrawal1019]

Hey.. i am from India. We have a humid weather here where i stay. Will this decoration work here?? Also if i am using whiping cream icing and not fondant. Can i still use edible glue or piping gel to stick these wafer paper decorations??

[@JessicaSaleCakeDesign]

Sometimes wafer paper decorations can curl or fall off if left in humid conditions for a long time. But for short periods, like a day, I think it would be okay. However, I would always suggest doing a small practice piece if you are unsure, to test it out, first. Thanks so much for watching. ❤️

[@margaretpatterson7090]

My condolences ❤️🙏🏿

[@melissadilbar732]

So very sorry for your loss. Can I ask hat was the double may you used?

[@JessicaSaleCakeDesign]

Thank you for watching. Did you mean the colour? It was Navy Blue by Colour Splash.

[@melissadilbar732]

Sorry meant the double mat ? What is it exactly ?

[@lindyannfarrier8463]
