Hi all i am trying to do a tiara pattern that i found on here. but i cant seem to get it off the bake o glide non stick sheet without it breaking.
i am trying to make it bend like normal tiara's do so i taped the design on to a container and then the bake o glide sheet. i am using a stiff peak royal icing and leaving it to dry overnight but i can seem to get it off in one piece. i have tried using nozzels 2 4 5 but it still wont come off
IS THERE ANYONE OUT THERE THAT CAN DO A QUICK VIDEO TUTORIAL ON IT? so i can get it done for my nieces cake.
Many Thanks
AI'm not familiar with that kind of sheet. I use parchment paper. It has to really be dry before you move it.
this is the non stick icing sheet

how long do you think i should leave the royal icing? i am going to leave it over nigh again and see what it comes out like tomorrow. but if it dont come off i was considering using a bigger piping nozzel.
any ideas on how to do a better job of it
yeah, i would use parchment too.
pipe it onto a flat piece. give it 20 min or so to set up a little and then drape it over a 6 inch cake dummy, turned sideways, to dry. You've got to let it dry for several days because the bottom/inside will still take a while to dry, Then I would lift the cake dummy and the tiara onto the cake. Let the tiara slide off and then *carefully* peel the parchment off.

Overnight won't be long enough.

Exactly!
you can also spray the waxed paper or parchment paper with pam or whatever fat spray you have
then wipe it off
a thin layer will remain, will not hurt the royal and it works great for easier removal
some cake compatriots might have not heard of this and might be hyperventilating right now
but it works fine and the royal sets up fine
it's recommended for fine lace pieces to reduce breakage there too
another idea for you is to make several so you can afford to break a few while you learn
and to help with the drying you can put it in an oven that's turned off but has a light on inside
or a warming drawer on low if you happen to have a warming drawer in your oven
or a warming drawer on low if you happen to have a warming drawer in your oven
well i really can't remember doing this with royal--not that i haven't just can't remember
so test this first if you do it
try a blob of royal in there if you happen to have a warming drawer or a dehydrator
let it come to room temp before removing

I Googled "tiara tutorial cake." There were other results on the list.
Good luck!
Try lightly greasing your sheet before you pipe. Are you using cream of tartar in your RI? I would.
collette peter's cake video on craftsy covers this type of thing. she overpipes a second time with a little bigger tip and she also greases the wax paper. She said that wax paper works best.
AThank you all for you help I followed a tutorial off here and managed to get it to work. Will put a pic of the cake up on here when it is finished, thanks again
