Hiya i really need anyones help asap. im making a 3 tier wedding cake which needs to be ready in 2 hours! I have a fimo bride and groom for the top tier and I can work out if they are a bit heavy and are gona sink, would anyone use a support or think they r ok or what??? Im sorry im a bit scatty but this is an emergency order which I got at 2pm yesterday and ive been up all night lol!!!

Thanks guys xx

If you feel that this will be too heavy, go with your gut instinct and use a support. Little cake circle cut out to their shape should do fine with the bubble tea straws or what you use under it. Better safe than sorry!!

Well, they probably won't sink, but if they're heavy, your bigger fear should be that they'll topple over.

Can you glue them with RI to a gumpaste plaque for stability? Or even a foamboard plaque at this late hour.

That way, if you think they're too heavy, you can insert dowels under the plaque.

Thankyou for your opinions, I think I will go with the support!!

I use straws alot of the time under top pieces. Works great!
