NO<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Is baby\u2019s breath toxic? YES<\/span><\/li>\n<li>Is gypsophila poisonous? YES<\/li>\n<li><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Is baby\u2019s breath safe to put on a cake? Yes, <strong>IF DONE SAFELY<\/strong><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If baby&#8217;s breath is accidentally eaten it can cause minor stomach upset. Baby&#8217;s breath can also be a skin irritant for some people.<\/p>\n<p>So how can you put baby&#8217;s breath on a cake then? You can if you do so responsibly by ensuring it doesn&#8217;t touch anything edible.<\/p>\n<p>But it&#8217;s a cake &#8211; it&#8217;s all edible! The work-around is using a disc of clear acetate or cellophane to act as a barrier between the flowers and the cake.<\/p>\n<p>For an extra layer of safety, you could also spray the baby&#8217;s breath with <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3haLwef\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">edible glaze spray<\/a> to form another barrier between the baby&#8217;s breath and the cake.<\/p>\n<h1>How To Put Baby&#8217;s Breath on Cake Safely<\/h1>\n<p>The other issue with baby&#8217;s breath is that it can turn brown after a few hours out of water. (Because the stems are so delicate they don&#8217;t hold much water.) The work around is to use one of those little <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/32AtyuQ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">florist&#8217;s tubes or vials<\/a>, then fill this with water and insert your stems.<\/p>\n<p>If you can&#8217;t get hold of these or they are too chunky for the amount of stems you want to insert in the cake, you can make your own slimmer one with a plastic drinking straw. Cut the straw in half then bend over one end about an inch and tape it in place with floristry tape. You may need to trim it to size a little more at this point. Then you can fill the straw with water (not too much) insert it carefully in the cake, then add the stems.<\/p>\n<p>Because some people can be allergic to latex (contained in the floristry tape), you will either:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>need to dip the straw in melted white chocolate and let it set as a barrier before inserting it into the cake<\/li>\n<li>or wrap the stem carefully with sarin wrap\/cling film to cover the floristry tape, again as a barrier<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If you are using one of the larger florist&#8217;s vials\/stem holders for let&#8217;s say a large central arrangement, because it&#8217;s bulkier this needs to be worked into the planning stage of your cake as follows:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Once you have crumb-coated the cake, take your washed and cleaned flower tube and insert it into the center of the cake or wherever you plan to have your flower arrangement. This will cause your filling to bulge out slightly but at least this is fixable at this stage.<\/li>\n<li>Remove the flower tube. If the location of the flower tube is offset or somewhere other than the center of the cake, then you will need to flag this on the cake board underneath so when you come back to re-insert it after the final coat of frosting\/fondant, you will know where the hole is!<\/li>\n<li>Then do you final coat of frosting or fondant<\/li>\n<li>Before placing the baby&#8217;s breath flower tube on the cake, you need to first cut out a hole in your cellophane disc to allow the flower tube to pass through.<\/li>\n<li>Next fill your flower tube 2\/3 full with water, place the lid back on and insert your baby&#8217;s breath.<\/li>\n<li>Locate the hole in the center of the cake and punch through the fondant.<\/li>\n<li>Lay your disc of cellophane over the hole, then insert the flower tube of baby&#8217;s breath.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>The other alternative is to use <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/32De8WK\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">artificial baby&#8217;s breath or gypsophilia<\/a> on your cake.<\/p>\n<p>Or if you really want fresh flowers for your cake, little white jasmine flowers and foliage are a safe alternative.
