I'm finishing up a wedding cake for tomorrow..... yesterday I decorated the bottom two tiers...... White cake, black ribbon at the base, with pearl border...... the bottom tier is GREAT...... the next tier...... OMG !! The black ribbon is RUNNING and turning the pearls and icing under them BLACK.......... Is there ANYTHING you can think of that I can do to save this cake ? I know I can take the pearls off and put a new layer of icing and pearls........ WHAT a PAIN, and it really won't match the others, but I wanted to wait and see if it is ALL going to run, or just parts..... MAYBE I won't have to redo the entire thing....... ANY help would be appreciated..... THANKS !
I hope I understand you correctly. I used freezer paper (found in the aisle with wax paper and foil)...cut it to the exact width of the ribbon and put that on the cake first, with the waxy side of the paper to the buttercream, then put the ribbon directly on top of that. You don't need to iron it or anything. I wrapped it around the cake and poked a corsage pin in to secure it, then put the satin ribbon around that and poked another pin in and then removed the first pin.
hi all, i wouldn't put any kind of pin in a cake you can secure it with ri. fabric stores also carry color safe ribbon that doesn't run, you'll have to ask which one's they are, if it's satin ribbon ironing it will change the color with wax paper and the bc will make it different shades, i like the double tape method
