I have just done a flooded RI piece for an upcoming cake which will be iced in buttercream, my question is after a while of sitting on the buttercream will it do anything to the RI piece eg. will the RI go soggy, or will the colours from it run into the buttercream?

First time i have done a flooded piece on a cake before so just thought i should ask incase and i end up having big probs lol

Thanks

You should be fine, make sure the RI is completely dry though. I wouldn't take it in and out of the fridge so if you have to do that put the RI piece on when you're all done. HTH

It'll be ok but don't refrigerate your cake with the piece on it, if you have to refrigerate place it on the cake when it comes to room teperature that prevent color bleeding from the condensation. (but if it's really dry you won't have that problem). HTH
