Has anyone used these on white buttercream? I was wondering if they got hot, would they run on the buttercream?

The wedding wll be in May and outside. Weather could be hot and/or humid.

I thought of using the black buttercream, then thought maybe black fondant dots, and then I got the edible pearl idea.

Any input,

Thanks for any info.

I never used, sorry...

But I'm thinking, wouldn't the black pearls bleed into the white BC?

Maybe black gumpaste pearls?

I've done black border on White Butter cream. It will bleed onto the white. However If it is done in Gumpaste and fully dried. It will take longer to bleed. It will eventually, however I think you'll have a better chance with gumpaste then butter cream. You can see on my cake it's the one with the fountain under it. Just my input.

i have piped black BC with no bleedig, but u can use black fondnat or gp for sure

Thank you for your suggestions. I haven't used gumpaste, but it sounds like it has a better chance than fondant.

Thanks again,

Vicki

thinking about it more ,as a matter of fact, i don't think either will bleed but GP does absorb grease from the BC and might get blotchy whereas fondant will not do so.

I made over 800 black pearls for a white wedding cake in January. The cake was inside. I'd suggest that you do a dry run to make sure you like the look. The happy couple liked it so much they teared up, but I didn't care for the look at all.
