I'm sure this is somewhere here on this site, but I am doing a cake and the woman might want fresh flowers on it. What flowers are safe to put on cakes? Thanks!

You can search edible flowers, either here or google. But if they are going to touch the cake, it should be pesticide free.

If you try to research this you will find that each list have a different set of flowers that are NOT to be used and those that can be icon_sad.gif In other words, what's on the NO list can also show up on another list as safe.
It certainly best to try to talk them out of fresh flowers.
And...........NEVER< ever put flower stems into a cake unless thay are covered w/floral taps &.or in a straw to protece the cake.
