Hi all
Am making my sons first birthday cake this month (i did my first sons first birthday cake too)
My first sons cake was the first cake i ever made - it was two tier (talk about a challenge for myself) and i purchased some edible hungry caterpillar decorations
my seconds son cake is going to be hay diddle diddle and again ive purchased some of the decorations but this time i would like to make the stars and clouds to go around the sides of the cakes myself.
my issue is when ive done this before ive found the shapes go all out of shape when i pick them up after cutting them :/ am i supposed to wait for them to dry out/go hard before i put them on the cake? or is the a nack to getting them to stay in shape?
