I would like to know how I would go about piping swirl drop flowers in advance. I use Sugarshack's buttercream recipe. The reason I want to do it in advance is because I really suck at piping those things on the side of a cake. For me, it's easier to pipe them vertically instead of horizontally. I haven't had much practice with those so I thought it might make life easier to do some now and then just "glue" them on later.

I know people can do roses in advance but I didn't know if something so small would work as well. Also any tips or advice on piping flowers on the sides would be welcome too.

Thanks!

Do them in RI and let them dry....

Great advice from Jamie... that's what I'd do too.
