or a royal icing covered cookie.

Feasible w/o the flower becoming mush?

I have crosses for daughter's baptism. Some are "iced" with fondant and some are iced with royal icing. I want to put a bc drop flower on each kind and bag them for people to take home.

How long in advance can I do this? I was thinking about using ri as the "glue".

Will this work?

Again, I looooooooooooove mmf as I am becoming better at it and finding simple cutters work best. And rolling it thin is easy. Practice helps. And letting the KA do all the work as fast as mixing and kneading.

Thanks in advance and for dealing with all of my ?s

I've put royal flowers on my iced cookies (pic in my photos, it's the cookie bouquet with the music notes and squares/rectangles), but have never tried it with buttercream flowers.

I would think the buttercream flowers would get mushy, or at least be soft enough to be easily damaged, especially if you're bagging them.

Is there a reason you want to use buttercream and not royal for the flowers?

I understand about being tired, LOL, it's hard to make sense sometimes!

I used a small bead of royal to attach the flowers to the cookies, and they held just fine after they dried. Mine were iced with Antonia74's icing, which is a royal. I've never done it with fondant, but I would think it would work the same way.

Good luck, and be sure to post pictures when you get them made.
