FAQs

1. What size ribbon do I need for a cake?

As a general guideline, consider using a ribbon that is slightly wider than the height of the cake tier. For example, if your cake tier is 4 inches tall, a ribbon width of 5 or 6 inches would work well. This allows for a visually pleasing proportion and ensures the ribbon covers the entire side of the cake tier. However, you can also opt for narrower or wider ribbons depending on the desired look and style you want to achieve.

2. What type of ribbon to use on a buttercream cake?

Satin ribbon is a popular choice for buttercream cakes as its smooth and lustrous surface complements the creamy texture of the frosting. Satin ribbons are typically made from polyester or silk and are known for their elegant appearance.

It's recommended to use a non-greaseproof satin ribbon that is not prone to absorbing oils or discoloration from the buttercream. This ensures that the ribbon remains pristine and doesn't affect the overall presentation of the cake.

3. Can you decorate a cake with ribbon?

Yes, you can decorate a cake with ribbon. Ribbon can be wrapped around the base of each cake tier to create a decorative border or band. It can also be used to create bows, ribbon accents, or patterns on the cake surface. Satin ribbon, organza ribbon, and grosgrain ribbon are commonly used for cake decoration. Our ribbons are food-safe and free from non-edible decorations. Decorating with ribbon is a simple yet effective way to enhance the appearance of a cake and add a personalized touch.

4. How do you put ribbon on a cake?

To put ribbon on a cake, measure and cut the ribbon to the appropriate length. Attach it to the cake using small dots of icing, food-safe adhesive, or double-sided tape. Smooth out any wrinkles and adjust the ribbon for an even appearance. Repeat the process for each tier if necessary. Trim any excess ribbon for a clean finish.
