Needing help...never have done a Daisy flower in BC. what I need to know is this....I've seen videos how they are done...if I make it and place it in something to give it shape, like an egg crate foam piece ....and put in the freezer for a bit.....
Will it hold its shape once I place it on the cake? How do I get the BC Daisy to keep the shape I want it too??? I live in Texas, and it's hot and humid, the cake is for inside...but I have to get it there also. and can I add several layers of petals to make it look fuller also.
Is there anyway to have it keep its shape if done in BC?? and if I decide that this wont work...and try working it in Fondant...can it be eaten??? Sorry...I dont work in fondant...we tend to not get along. lol
Oh!! I forgot to tell you, Im a Visual person...so if you all have BC Daisies I would love to see them PLEASE!!!
Thanks!!!
Corn Starch makes the BC stiff??? Do I add it into the recipe for my flowers? or sprink it on it...sorry I know dumb question.

no i should have been clearer in my explanation-- as a pro decorator i always kept a squirt bottle of water and a shaker of cornstarch at my station so i could adjust my icing -- a 5 gallon bucket full -- as needed -- but i just would adjust a bit of it at a time--not the whole bucket full -- either loosen it with the water or stiffen it up with cornstarch and just mix an area the size of where my spatula could reach --so you can make it as usual and add the cs after --
Ok, thank you!...was wondering how I would get a stiffer BC daisy...with some petals up and some down...and the flower not look FLAT on the cake....I want it to have some contour and depth to it....and not look wilted on there.
