Instructions for use:

Roll out a thin layer of modeling clay and cut out the shape of the orchid petal and bud using the cutters. For a more realistic look, we recommend using modeling tools and silicone veining molds. Ideal for wedding cakes, celebrations, and luxurious desserts.

Cutting shapes:

Use individual cutters for the respective parts of the flower

Gently press the shape and carefully remove it from the base.

Modeling and shaping:

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

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

Insert a thin floral wire (food-grade) into the center of each petal for later flower assembly.

Drying:

Allow individual parts to dry for at least 12 hours (preferably overnight) on shaping dishes, aluminum foil, or in flower formers 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 embellish the flower with pistils or purchased or handmade stamens.

Coloring:

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

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

Powder colors can also be lightly moistened with alcohol to create a gentle "watercolor" effect.

Usage on a cake:

Insert the finished orchid into the cake using a flower holder or by inserting wires into a straw.

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

Tips and recommendations:

For greater 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 a florist wire), always inform the customer.

Maintenance:

After use, wash in lukewarm water with soap and dry thoroughly. Not intended for dishwasher use.
