Hello everyone, I recently purchase some of Karens themed boxes, however it doesnt matter which way I stack my cookies they tip easily.

What can you suggest I weight below the flower foam with?

I have tried some playdoe, but would like to know what other ideas are out there .

thanks

Thats why I love CC, I had not thought of either of those much simpler methods,instead of my labour intensive way of making playdoe.
thank you both.

I like using candy clay in the bottom of my cookie arrangements, no styrofoam or weight needed. You can stick the cookie sticks into it, and if you make a mistake, you just mush it back and restick.
