"Most ribbons are porous, so ideally you should only use them on cakes that have been iced with sugarpaste or other firm icings."
1.Cut the ribbon to the required length, using the tables above. Apply a 1cm section of double sided sticky tape to the reverse side of one end of the ribbon. Peel the paper from the other side of the sticky tape.
2.Standing behind the cake, loop the ribbon around the base of the tier you want it on and gently pull the ends towards each other until the loop fits snugly around the cake.
3.Place the un-taped end of the ribbon next to the cake. Stick the other end of the ribbon on top of it, taking care to ensure that the tape is only touching the ribbon.

"Ribbons are great way to add a strong colour theme to a simple cake or to give your cakes a really professional looking finish." - Sunshine Bakery Package Company .
Sunshine Bakery Packaging Company top tip! :
"To avoid the danger of colour leaching from the ribbon to your cake, you should always use a ribbon that is suitable for food contact."
1.Most cake boards are 13mm high, so after icing them it’s best to use a 15mm wide ribbon. You could choose to use a 12mm ribbon on an un-iced cake board.
2.Cut the ribbon to the required length. This ribbon is not in direct contact with the cake fix it in place using small pieces of double sided sticky tape at 9–15cm (3-5in) intervals around the board.
3.Always line up the top edge of the ribbon with the top of the board or icing.
4.Starting at the back of the board, wrap the ribbon around the board fixing it as you go. Overlap the final section of the ribbon and fix in place.

Why is it necessary to wrap the cake board with ribbon
If you want your cake drum to look tall, then you need a ribbon that matches the cake. If your cake drum is around the edge, you can use glue or double-sided tape to paste it. If the cake drum is wrapped There will be wrinkles on the edge, but this does not affect the perfection of the cake.
My suggestion is to choose the edge, because the material and edge of the edge are very cost-effective. You can buy ribbons according to the color and color of the cake. Theme, order the color of the cake drum and the color of the ribbon according to the theme.
The feature of the product lies in how you want to add the ribbon. If the height of the cake drum is 12mm, you can choose a 1cm ribbon. If your cake drum is less than 8cm thick, the ribbon cannot be selected. If it is very narrow, it is easy It is ugly to expose the cake drum to the outside. In order to provide customers with perfect cake decoration, we all need to find ways to let customers see the special and personalized ribbon matching.
