Hi
I want to make topping, something similar as done in the cake in the topsy turvy cake by Edna.

Can some one help me understand how to put those beads and wire together?
Where can i buy the material from?
I am based in California, bay area.
Would appreciate all your responses
Thanks
I did this recently - here's how:
Buy a flower pick (my Michael's has Wilton ones. They stick in the cake but have a hollow part to hold flowers. I cut wires (I think 26 gauge) to different lengths and used white florist tape to bind them all together in a bouquet. I then slid the bead on the wire and used beading pliers to bend the wire over the end of the bead. Then I arranged the wires how I wanted them.
Edited to add:
It looks like the beads in the pic are fondant molded onto wire and the little ones are pre-made sprays you can get at a craft store.
LOL< I thougth you were looking to "spark things up" at home.
Darn it! I was looking forward to reading it.

Too funny! That is what I was thinking too!
Man, I think we all need to take a break from caking and spen some time with our men. LOL Bunch of dirty dirty minds on the site.
Geez...I guess I was lookin' for something else...hee hee!!!
I got the same thought. Had to check and see if I was in "the lounge" lol
My mind was so in the gutter, lol that I forgot to say to the OP that you might want to PM Edna on how she did her cake. She's an amazing sweet lady who is always willing to help. I've PM'ed her in the past with questions and let her know that I also started a post with the same questions so she could reply there instead so that her answers would benefit everyone.
That's a great cake she did.
ohhh dang... i didnt realise my "sparks" post would turn into an sparkling post... lol..
