I have seen Nicholas Lodge with a small steamer he uses to steam his flowers. Anyone knows where I could purchase one?
Thanks.

I have found that it gives the flowers a natural sheen; the colours look more vibrant and if you are applying petal dust, it sets the dust on to the gumpaste or sugar/flowerpaste. I have been using my laundry steamer (just like the one Buddy used last night on his cake, on the FoodNetwork Cake Challenge), but it's too cumbersome.
Hope this answers your question.
