I have read to attach ribbon to a cake that you can iron wax paper to it as a backing,well it didn't work for me...
So what I did try was cutting a strip of glad press&seal and rubbing it on that back of the ribbon and hey it worked!!!!!!!!!!!
Not sure if I did the wax paper thing wrong,but just thought I'd let you's know of my new idea(if it's is new or I am just slow..LOL)
Glad to share/hope it helps others !

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!! I came here tonight intending to ask this question, but you answered it. I have a wedding cake to do for the 24th (my 1st) and the bride wants the ribbon on each layer. You saved me alot of worrying and trial & error ideas.
Thanks so much for the idea!! I just went to michaels and brought the ribbon i need for my cake order and totally did not remember to do the wax paper thingy. Well won't have to now, i'll go with your idea!!
Love your avatar.
Caught me offguard for a moment since I forgot where I am these days...for just one moment.
We now have Timmies down here along 75. We are never out.
thanks for the tip

What are Timmies???
Great tip by the way! Love it!
That seems so much easier than the wax paper thing. Thank you so much for Sharing.
Timmie's, or Tim Horton's, is a coffee/donut shop. There's one on just about every corner in my city. They are quite popular in Canada.
OOOOhhhhh! Tim Hortons! My son Loves that place!!!! Thanks 
Yes I cut a piece of press and seal the size of the ribbon and attached it as backing on the ribbon.....Just give it a good rubbing on and it sticks..then stick it to the cake!....The same concept as others on CC have used waxed paper.
(sorry for my lame instructions)..lol
so you attach it to the ribbon then the cake?
hahah ithou ght you rubbed it on the ribbon to *seal* it then just attached the ribbon after it had the filmy stuff on it.
the wax paper thing didnt work for me either
