Great for creating edible flowers on cakes, cupcakes, wedding cakes, or special desserts.

Non-Food Use:

Can also be used with modeling clays such as FIMO, polymer clays, ceramic clay, or salt dough.

Perfect tool for making floral decorations, jewelry, accessories, or other creative projects.

Material:

High-quality stainless steel that ensures durability, long life, and easy maintenance. Sharp edges precisely cut details and allow for easy release of the shape.

Storage:

Store in a dry place. After use, we recommend washing with lukewarm water and thoroughly drying to prevent corrosion.

Warning:

If the cutters are used for non-food purposes (e.g., working with clay or FIMO), they should not be used for food afterward. We recommend having a set designated exclusively for food purposes and another for creative purposes.

Instructions for Use:

Cutting Shapes:

Use individual cutters for the respective parts of the flower: wings, throat, and triple petal.

Gently press the shape and carefully detach from the surface.

Modeling and Shaping:

Use modeling tools (round or tear-shaped) to thin and shape the edges of the petals. Working on foam pad helps create natural curling of the edges.

You can shape the petals into a curved shape using shaping dishes or a spoon.

In each petal, insert a venPurchase thin florist wire (food grade) for later flower assembly.

Drying:

Let individual parts dry for at least 12 hours (preferably overnight) in shaping bowls, on aluminum foil, or in floral forms to maintain their shape.

Flower Assembly:

Once the petals are dry, join them together using florist tape or a bit of edible glue.

You can enhance the flower with stamens or sticks (purchased or handmade).

Coloring:

To highlight details, use food-grade dust colors applied with a dry brush.

You can combine different shades to achieve a natural look of petals.

Dust colors can also be lightly moistened with alcohol to create a subtle "watercolor" effect.

Usage on a cake:

Insert the finished orchid into the cake with a flower pick or by inserting wires into a straw.

Orchids are suitable for decorating wedding and festive cakes, cupcakes, or luxury desserts.

Tips and Recommendations:

For added realism, you can lightly press texture into the petals using a silicone veining mold.

Work with clean tools in a dry environment – the material will hold its shape better.

If the flower is not intended for consumption (for example, due to the use of florist wire), always inform the customer.
