I'm so thankful she added those last pieces because I was hoping something would give it a lil more height 😅 loved this video!! Thank you

@@FlowerMoxie you're SO right! I didn't consider doing it until I watched this video. Now I'm obsessed!

Thank you for this video. I recently watched this video before making my own and I found using candy melt inspiring, I’ve only used fondant as a protective barrier.

@FlowerMoxie 6 месяцев назад

That's such a great idea! We're glad you found the video helpful ❤️

@janwilliams3841 Год назад

I take pictures of my wreaths & designs...it just gives me a different perspective of the arraignment. I thought that was just a rookie move, so thanks for sharing that you do that, too!

@FlowerMoxie Год назад

That's not a rookie move, that's being smart!

@katyb2793 Год назад

Does this have to be done on the day of the wedding? How long will the flowers look fresh in the cake? It's SO beautiful 😍

@FlowerMoxie Год назад

If the cake is in the cooler, you could probably get away with adding flowers the day before, but the day-of would be best practice.

@katyb2793 Год назад

@@FlowerMoxie that makes sense, thank you 😊

@sharongeyer2304 Год назад

Cut the fresh flower stem, wrap it with plastic wrap to seal in the moisture and place into a malt straw and place into the cake. Flowers stay fresh longer. I don't like fake flowers on a cake.

@FlowerMoxie Год назад

Great tip!

@hannahbridge1876 2 года назад

How many flowers would you recommend setting aside for the cake?

@FlowerMoxie 2 года назад

That's tough because it truly depends on the design and look you're going for. Might be best to find a few inspo pictures and count how many are in it to get a more accurate number. I typically set aside way more than is needed, but I want to give the cake artist enough options. After they get done, I typically pop the leftovers in budvases and scatter them around the guest book table. XOXOX

@nikkikennedy551 2 года назад

This might be a dumb question but aren't some flowers poisonous? How do you navigate this issue? This is just such a beautiful idea.

@FlowerMoxie 2 года назад

Not a dumb question, at all! There aren't really any traditional wedding flowers that are poisonous, but if you're nervous you can easily google the blooms you're planning on using. Commonly known poisonous plants are Oleander, Poison Hemlock, Foxglove, Lily of the Valley berries, but we don't sell those and they're not commonly used in event florals. Also, if you want to play it save then you can cut them and use a skewer. XOXO

@@FlowerMoxie thank you so much for those helpful tips! This is definitely an idea I would like to do❤

I’m gonna use fake ones and make a keep sake like a corsages or a small flower decor for a shelf or beside a picture , I’m gonna try my hardest and see what happens

@FlowerMoxie 9 месяцев назад

That sounds so pretty and thoughtful! What an amazing to keepsake afterwards, you're gonna do great!

@annik3976 Месяц назад

hey :) what are the measurements of that cake? is it a 20inch and 18 inch size?

@FlowerMoxie Месяц назад

Unfortunately I don't have the size of the cake. Amy from Amy Cakes was kind enough to make it for us and do this tutorial. If you are going to use a cake stand, measure it first and base your cake size off of that!

@chocaholicsanon Год назад

in the uk we are not allowed to put flowers directly into the cakes.

@lilacDaisy111 Год назад

Even if they're organic, I wonder!

@Matt-hy2uw 9 месяцев назад

Even if they are fake ???? Sheesh sucks in the UK I guess

@lizziebee315 2 года назад

The cake is so pretty. Are you worried about euc toxicity or allergies?

@FlowerMoxie 2 года назад

Nah, it can't be worse than T-Bell. But all jokes aside, one can use a toothpick at the end or wrap the end of the stem in plastic wrap, or stem tape (but I'm not sure what's in that tape). Being a wedding planner for 14 years, all my cake vendors just stuck it right in the icing and I never heard of any fallout. So I don't know if that's the 'right answer', but that's what they did. I hope that helps! XXXX, Amy

@katyb2793 Год назад

@@FlowerMoxie if you're worried, you could do this with artificial flowers right? (Probably can't get bpa free artificial flowers though lol)

@@katyb2793 Yep! And you're right, there are plenty of chemicals in those so pick the devil you feel most comfortable with. XXXX, Ames

@metalgirl 11 месяцев назад

Don’t the flowers wilt????

@FlowerMoxie 11 месяцев назад

Some flowers, like roses, carnations and ranunculus, can hold up out of water for several hours! So while they wouldn't last for days on end they'll last long enough on your cake! Typically, flowers are placed onto the cake the day of the wedding, so they'll be totally fine!

@bridgethamilton5302 Год назад

Eucalyptus is poisonous...Did you just stick it in the cake without tape!

@FlowerMoxie Год назад

There are so many different types of eucalyptus and some varieties definitely have a sap that you wouldn't want to put in your frosting, yuck! Since most flowers that you would get from a grower or the grocery store have been sprayed, we recommend using tape and wire around the stems before placing into your cake. This will definitely create a protective barrier. You can also purchase edible flowers at most grocery stores that are certified organic! Since you will be working with small sprigs of greenery and buds for the cake, and the flowers are removed before consumption, this usually doesn't pose too much of an issue.
