Hi guys,
I need to make a cake with music notes (gumpaste/fondant) standing up out of the cake. I know that you can spray pasta and use it with fondant covered cakes, but in buttercream the pasta gets soggy, so I thought I would attach the notes onto wire. I went to Nick Lodge the other day to pick up supplies and they said NO.....wire will rust!
So I wonder what are you all doing to get this effect on a buttercream cake????

First of all, you can get special covered wires for cake decorating and then, to be on the safe side, you can stick straws down into the cake first (from the really thin ones for individual wires to the bigger fat ones if you are doing a spray of wires). Your wires will not come into contact with cake that will be eaten that way. Hope that helps!
You can use wire if you cover it in floral tape first. Floral tape is a stretchy fabric tape which sticks to itself, you can buy in places like Michaels or florist shops.
Thankyou all sooooo much!!! I appreciate the responses. I will use straws . Wish me luch~
