Has anyone ever put a frozen buttercream transfer on the side of a cake? I wanted to make a standup shopping bag with a FBCT on the side. Will it slide down? TIA

I have done it as a practice one. They seemed to stay up fine. They were about 2" to 3" across. If you care to look my Jack Skellington cake.

I have done this as well. I put several 2x3 inch butterflies on the side of a round cake. The butterflies were just one color, like a silhouette of sorts.
This cake also made a 4.5 hour road trip and I'm told it made it one piece. Hopefully it actually did make it and the person who took it wasn't just saying that to me to "save" my feelings. LOL
I think the important thing would be to keep the FBCT's lightweight however you can so that they do not slide down and pull everything else down with it. Then again maybe it was just pure luck that my FBCT's stayed put.
