Very simple, but a nice result. Thank you for doing a tutorial with wafer paper 🌹👍🏻

[@sanctifiedbytruth6048]

Pretty! You could totally use those wafer circles in teal shades to create a mermaid themed cake!

[@CakesbyLynz]

They would look amazing in teal. Definitely perfect for creating a mermaid themed cake 😁

[@rosariacarlostella9105]

Such a good idea. Very creative and looks so effective

[@jillnoye6676]

Absolutely beautiful and definitely one I’m going to try. Thanks for sharing 🥰

[@Colinupham]

What a wonderful idea. I love how they shimmer when you turned the cake. It looks amazing. You have great ideas and they are all different. Such variety 🙂

[@bludeetu321]

Could you have coloured the paper before punching out your circles? Or would the dust harm the mechanism? Just thought you could speed up the process...cheers

[@Olympia95020]

My thoughts as well

[@kingawozniak76]

I don't think it would harm it but it would be hard to clean the dust off of the whole puncher.

[@lorrainehicks9172]

Great tutorial. I love effect the wafer paper and the luster dust technique give the cake. If your client asks is it edible and does it have a taste? The only thing to make this tutorial better Lnyz would be if it was purple 💜 lol. You know me can't resist. I have to tell you I was having a really crappy day till I saw the tutorial from you waiting. You always brighten my darkest day . Thank you for sharing and keep on caking 💜

[@CakesbyLynz]

Hi Lorraine, Thank you so much. I always love lustre dust on wafer paper as it goes so shimmery. In regards to taste I find it still just tastes like wafer paper, you can't taste the lustre dust and wafer paper doesn't have much of a taste anyway. I'll definitely have to do another purple cake soon. I hope you have a nice week ahead x x

[@lorrainehicks9172]

Thank you so much. Happy 4th of July

[@vanderluciar.souzasampaio3535]

Lindooooo 👏👏👏😍😍😍😍

[@CakesbyLynz]

Thank you so much

[@lauravega3161]

Its adorable. You would save time by coloring the paper first.

[@nairayvone]

Wafer paper gets wet, sticky and non sturdy on a buttercream cake. Is it only suitable onto fondant?

[@traceyaquilina6945]

Lovely idea. Would you be able to use this idea on a buttercream cake? Thanks💖

[@CakesbyLynz]

I'm so pleased you like it. In regards to adding them onto a buttercream cake, wafer paper soaks up any moisture, so there is a possibility it would soak up any moisture in the buttercream. Because of this I usually just add wafer paper onto fondant covered cakes.

[@mandleeds72]

Hi, can you tell me which cake tins you use. I'm wanting to buy all new ones but would appreciate your advice. I'm going to make one of your cakes for my daughter later this month x

[@christineknight4413]

I love this idea!! I was going to suggest fish scales, but I see someone already did 😊 Do you think you could put them on a buttercream covered cake?

[@CakesbyLynz]

I love the idea of making them look like fish scales, I think this would work perfectly.

[@karlykd4961]

Looks awesome! How are the dots to eat? Or would you pick them off?

[@CakesbyLynz]

I personally really like eating wafer paper, it just dissolves in your mouth as you eat it, so you wouldn't need to pick them off.

is this a fondant cake base?

🥰🥰🥰

[@cruzanaortegadeolivo2558]

Can wafer paper only be used on fondant? Can it be used over buttercream?

[@mpnavarro1982]

can i use this edible wafer paper on buttercream cake?

[@melindasweeney8333]

Can I luster dust the entire wafer paper before punching the circles out? Also if i don't have edible glue how much water would I use behind the circles to attach to the cake? Thank you

[@CakesbyLynz]

Hi Melinda, Yes you can definitely dust the whole sheet before cutting out the circles. This would be a great way to speed it up a little more. In regards to the water you would only need a small amount. Just hold the wafer paper in place until it has stuck. The water will make the wafer paper goes sticky.

[@kellyfairbairn9333]

Looks beautiful. Need patients colouring all those circles tho. I found myself using cake dummies a lot recently. Some friends and family have been wanting 3 and 4 tier cakes for only 10 or 20 people not realising that it's a LOT of cake. Far too much so dummies have been useful

[@CakesbyLynz]

Some people have mentioned dusting the whole sheet before cutting out the circles which is a fantastic idea for speeding up the process of colouring them. I didn't think of that at the time.

[@lilianahernandezguerrero8580]

Holaaaa habrías de considerar aunque sea, poner subtitulos en español pleaseee!

[@Olympia95020]

Can we just color the sheet and then punch them to save A LOT of time?

[@CakesbyLynz]

Yes you could definitely colour the sheets before you cut out the circles, that's a great time saving idea.
