I want to use ribbon on the bottom of all the tiers of my cake, but the ribbon doesn't want to stay on or even stay straight. Has anyone done this and can offer some tips??

Thanks,
Alex

i put a small piece of double sided tape on the ribbon where it overlaps. others i know use royal icing to "glue" it. i also wrap the ribbon around my pan first to make sure its the right length, then just carefully slide it around the cake. i eyeball it to make sure its straight. if its on a fondant covered cake, you can slide it a little bit after its in place to make it straight.
