Thank you so much ma for the tip. I'm a new subscriber and your videos are so inspiring. I'm learning a lot. Meanwhile, I have my first wedding cake coming up next month, and the bride requested for buttercream. Pls when do I get to cover the cake before the wedding to ensure it dries out and how do I go about the consistency of the buttercream?

[@OluchiImoh]

You're most welcome Jennifer, thanks for your kind words!❤️ You cover like you would your normal buttercream cake but it won't dry except you are using a crusting buttercream recipe and then you have to be mindful of the design so it doesn't become too heavy and fall off. Consistency should not be too thin or too stiff.

[@mercyamevi6561]

These tips are amazing. Thanks for your time and selflessness doing this. I have a question though, how do you go about items to be returned like cake stands, silk flowers flowers used for decorating stand? Especially in a case where you decide to leave before the cutting time, do you ask them to send it you? What if items get lost? I'm asking because I have obliged myself to wait a couple of times to get my stands back before leaving to avoid stories...

[@OluchiImoh]

You're most welcome! Thanks for your kind words, I appreciate them. Was going to cover this part but I missed it, like rented items. In the case cited, someone like or staff or a person related to you can wait back to clear the items. That's what event planners do, their staff would stay back to start clearing once the event is over. On the other hand, there can be arrangement to have it returned but a refundable fee should be agreed on and paid if returned else this is forfeited by the client. The latter is a better option if you ask me and if you have someone to do that.

[@mercyamevi6561]

Noted! Thank you so much for the feedback. I don't take these videos for granted, thanks again.

[@yetundecaulcrick7121]

Thank you for the tips. But please, if you rented the cake stand used, how do you return to the owner if you do not want to wait till the end of the program knowing fully well that the bride may not remember to delegate someone to take care of it for you. Will the stand not get lost if you don’t wait to get it yourself. Thank you. I will appreciate your reply.

[@OluchiImoh]

You're most welcome! Obviously, it will cause the owner can't be identified or found when the event is over and you can imagine a typical end-of-party scenario. Other people will be packing up their things, people leaving to go home, more like things aren't really organized at this point, so it's one of these, you stay and pick it up, get someone to do so for you, have the bride get someone to take care of it or just leave and don't rent it to avoid issues with the people you rented from.

It depends on what this is in taste, if it is actually too much, then cut down a bit, you can add a bit of salt to balance it out as well. Else, if it really isn't, then I'd advise you let it be else it will affect your Cake.
