Welcome to the Cake Decorators Q&A

Hi
In the large rose video in the other ideas section Paul suggests storing the roses in a box with polystyrene balls. I have seen polystyrene beads, which will I think be tiny, and balls. I’m not sure which to go for nor how much as I have never used these for storing flowers. But I think it’s a great idea to have a stock of ready made flowers as it will reduce the stress somewhat.

Any help would be great thanks. x

Hi bellescakes

I use polystyrene peanuts, I find them to be the right size for storing models and flowers and for mail packaging. If you google ‘polystyrene beads’ you’ll see all different ones.

Hi Miwl

Thanks for the information. I have now ordered the polystyrene peanuts.
