Sugar Flowers for Wedding Cakes

Sugar flowers are what take a wedding cake from homemade to professional. This collection brings together everything you need to craft roses, peonies, sweet peas and fine blossom that look fresh picked and last for years. The starting point is Squires Kitchen Sugar Florist Paste, developed with leading sugarcrafters to roll paper thin without tearing and dry to a delicate, petal like finish. Firm your paste with gum tragacanth, assemble petals and leaves with edible glue, and shape the detail with modelling paste. Whether you are decorating your first wedding cake at home or making them to order, these are the trade trusted essentials, made in Preston, England.

How far in advance can I make sugar flowers for a wedding cake?

Weeks, even months ahead, which is the main advantage over fresh flowers. Once your Sugar Florist Paste flowers are fully dry, store them in a box somewhere cool, dry and dark. Keep them out of the fridge, as condensation softens the paste and dulls any lustre.

What do I need to start making sugar flowers?

Sugar Florist Paste as the base, gum tragacanth to firm softer pastes for fine petals, and edible glue to assemble, plus flower cutters, veiners and a foam pad. SFP rolls paper thin and dries hard, which is what holds the petal shape.

Are sugar flowers edible?

They are made from sugar, so technically yes. In practice most decorators remove them before the cake is cut, especially flowers built on floral wire and tape, which are not meant to be eaten. Treat wired sugar flowers as a decoration, not a snack.
