Hi Debbie,

This technique will work with royal icing. Have fun making them! 🙂

Hi Fernie,

Yes you can freeze them but there are a few things you need to know. If you freeze them you need to place them flat in a single layer in an airtight container. Once you remove them from the freezer they begin to thaw immediately so I suggest you only remove a few at a time. If you notice they are beginning to thaw, pop them back in the freezer or they will become a big buttercream mess. If they are stored and frozen correctly, buttercream flowers are good for up to a week. I would also make more than you need just to be on the safe side.

Also, Americolor food gel colors work best for me. Sometimes the Wilton colors develop a spotty look.

Let me know if you need anything else!
Lisa

Also if you needed to make a ton, how would you recommend storing them? Thanks so much!!

I will work on that for you! I love daffodils and hydrangeas! This should be fun!

I am a visual person also Janis. If you show me I will get it. If you describe it to me, I think about doing laundry or dishes! LOL

The video is very helpful. Thank you for taking the time to always add a video.
I am a “show me” person (maybe that is why I live in Missouri…..The Show-me State! LOL) You can explain to me “how” to do something one hundred times, but the minute you “show” me the light bulb goes off and I get that “a-ha!” moment. I am definitely a “visual” person.
Thanks again for showing us your tips and tricks!
