Maybe try using cutters to imprint a shape into bc, then fill in with stars. I've seen it done with flower cookie cutters and it was pretty. HTH and good luck!

I've done it before. While the cake was baking I mixed my icing and made my roses. I stuck them in the freezer so I could easily place them on the cake.
When the cake comes out and you turn it onto your rack, let it cool for 15 mins and then stick it in the fridge. It will cool really quickly that way. After its cool do what ever you want. IMO 5 hours is plently of time if you're not doing something too fancy.

All my cakes have been completely made in 5 hours or less!

You can do lots in that time frame!

Have fun with it! I wish I had an excuse to bake right now...

You definitely have plenty of time...just sounds like you need some inspiration! I keep a stash of royal flowers on hand so that if I have a short notice or last minute cake, I can always just plop some on. Also, if you're doing minimal decorating, making the main color something other than white can spice things up fast.
