How to create modern ruffles using wafer paper | Cake Decorating Tutorial
In this tutorial, I'm going to show you how to create modern architectural ruffles for wedding cake designs, using wafer paper - my favorite cake decorating material.
All you need is your wafer paper (Saracino 0.27mm or AD-grade 0.27mm), scissors, and a pot of water.
Also, I use piping gel to attach my decorations to the cake, but you can use royal icing, melted chocolate or even buttercream (just not the cream cheese frosting).
Depends on your humidity, but this design should be fine in the fridge if your fridge is dry or you put wafer paper decorated cakes in a cardboard box.

I loved this! I already did all the wafer paper and have a cake that Im decorating for tomorrow with it but Im nervous do it ahead because everything I read about wafer paper is that it should go in the fridge if you’re bringing it from the fridge to a hot climate (I live in Arizona). If the fridge isn’t humid and I’ll have the cake in AC, will I be okay to do it a day ahead?? Also, I love all of your tutorials!!!

If I put the decoration on the cake before a day will the wafer paper wilt? or get softer and loose shape? Any information on timings would be great. Thanks again :)

Hi Anna, you are truly inspirational with wafer paper. Just wondering could you colour the wafer paper edges after steaming and letting them dry?
@floreacakes
Жыл бұрын
Yes you can! If you want to touch up just the edges, mix your color with alcohol. so it evaporates quicker.
Anna, I love this technique, I’d like to ask, if I wanted to softly colour the triangles, at what point would you advise to do so, and what would you use for colour- powder, gel or paint.

How is using the water steam different than using the mister in your previous videos, or, using the conditioner formula of your recipe? Thank you
@floreacakes

It is exactly the same - you need to apply controlled amount of moisture to share it and than let it dry maintaining this new shape. Using a pot of wafer that generates steam is more convenient for this technique, because you need to steam a relatively large piece of wafer paper at the same time.
