Alrightg so I have my gumpaste book and cutters, and everything...so I thought. I was reading the book and it adds wire to each flower. Obviously you'd want that for a bouquet or something, but is it necessary for every flower? I keep reading how they are edible and so I would have to think that there was a way to do it without the wire. What are the other ways?

Thanks.

Toothpicks are good to use if you want to stick the flower into the cake.

Some of them you can attach with frosting directly, if they are smaller flowers, or you can build up fondant underneath and attach them to that as well.
