Real flowers on cake
Original post by butrfly1rm
Since it's cheaper, I'm probably going to have my florist use a few real flowers to decorate my cake. Everything I look at online looks cheesy. Anyone have pictures of their cakes using real flowers so I can get some ideas?

peony have a very strong smell and are always covered in ants when in bloom, not sure if you would want that on a cake. IMO

I agree peonies are prone to ants that's why it's common to see them as sugar flowers instead of a real one.

Re: Real flowers on cake
Can any one provide an estimate for sugar flowers just scattered on a cake. Since I prob can't use regular real flowers
