Welcome to the Cake Decorators Q&A

Hi I’m doing a fayre in 2 weeks and I plan on making little ladybirds for on to of grass on my cupcakes, how far in advance can I make them and store them. And what is the best methods of storing them thanks

Hi denice

Make them all now and let them dry. The humidity at the moment might prevent them from drying properly so sooner you make them the better. Once dry put them in a card board box and protect them with tissue in between layers. If they’re taking time to dry give them plenty of ventilation. Never put decorations in plastic or airtight containers as they sweat and become limp. x

Thank you so much for the swift response! Xx
