I need help with this one. I have a wedding cake to do and the bride is supplying real flowers to put on top. My question is, are they just placed on top or attached in some manner? Thanks.

depends on what design she is expecting. I usually just arrange them on top without pentrating the icing or cake.

It would depend on how the flowers are. Whether they are arranged or singles. I lay a piece of wax paper on the top of the cake to protect it from the flowers and to keep the bc off of the flowers. MSWC has instructions for flower arrangements on cakes.

I do believe this product was made just for times like this, looks really cool, can't say I have any experience with it, but the website explains it well and there are a couple of threads about it. The inventor is a member here!
