Wonder how cake professionals create those gorgeous lively edible flowers? It's the magic of wafer sheets or rice papers. A flower-wreath cake can be prepared by using wafer sheets and colored edible ink printers. The sheets are colored on both sides to make the flower more natural-looking. You can make flowers with multiple colors as well.
Different layers with separate shades including blue, yellow, and red in addition to green, orange, and pink, etc. add an extra oomph to the tasty edible flowers.
How to Create Edible Flowers like Professional Cake Decorators?
- Print the wafer paper on both sides with an edible ink printer.
- After getting a sheet printed, you need to cut a rounded layer from it just leaving its corners outside.
- Now, cut the rounded sheet into a spiral shape.
- You should get a colored spiral wafer paper ribbon.
- Now, start rolling the paper up until you have your desired flower.
- Apply some edible gel at the bottom of the flower to join the layer collectively. You can also use sugar glue.
- Now, cut some shapes of leaves from a green sheet of rice paper by applying a cutter or with the help of scissors.
- You can use a leaf paper-punch to cut out some petals.
- Cut a slit in each leaf and join its ends by overlapping them slightly while applying some water.
- Make a stick, about 2 inches long, by rolling the paper after getting it wet with the liquid.
- Now, pierce the edible stick into the bottom of each flower.
Bake a round cake and cut out layers as per your choice. Professional cakes in general are of at least 4 layers. Apply icing on the cake and make a rustic pattern on it while using a spatula. Stack up the layers one by one. Cover the cake with buttercream, whipping cream, or fondant as per your choice. Decorate it by placing the flowers with leaves. A cake beautifully adorned with colored edible flowers is ready!
