Although I LOVE fresh flowers on wedding cakes and they are cost effective, today I just have to dive into one of my indulges...sugar flowers! Simple, edible sugar flowers are made from buttercream, whip cream and ganache. These are the best in price when decorating a wedding cake. And although they do look like flowers, those flowers don't have the full detail of sugar flowers made of fondant, gum paste or marzipan and cannot be preserved.
Also when selecting edible flowers for your cake, consider the cakes location. Since the wedding cake is the centerpiece of the reception, it's usually displayed for some time before the reception fully begins. If the reception is outdoors, buttercream flowers will bleed or melt on the cake so consider using fondant.Until next time...WEDologize!
