Gumpaste or fondant flowers are better than fresh...No pesticides, toxic flowers or fertilizers to worry about.
i use the food grade wax to seal my flowers. i melt it down in a bowl on a candle burner (the electric kind) and dip about an inch to an inch and a half into the wax. let it dry, then coat it again. i've found this to be the easiest way to get the flowers on the cake. HTH!
I just did a wedding cake with the Wilton Flower spikes to keep the flowers fresh, but I hated those things. Is there an alternative to using fresh flowers on a cake
I was thinking of using the spikes for an upcoming wedding. Can you tell me more about them? Why did you hate them?
Thanks for the input!

the reason I did not like the spikes is because it left a large hole in the cake. Also it will only go in so far and then you are left with the white top showing. I had thought about using preserved flowers for some of the weddings scheduled later this yr. They feel and look like real flowers without all the hastle
