We often get asked for sugar paste bees and this is our take! They are random patterned black and yellow 'bees' and a bit of fun for cakes. Shown here on a standard size cupcake.

Allergy Advice

Storage
Store decorations away from light and moisture. Do not refrigerate or freeze sugar paste decorations as they will absorb moisture and become soft and lose their shape. Once on cake do not store in airtight container as this may cause decorations to wilt as moisture will build up. If the decorated cake is stored in a refrigerator and the sugar paste decorations have survived the moisture problem, when they come up to room temperature condensation is likely to form and there is a possibility of the flowers 'wilting' and colours running. However, if you wish the sugar paste decorations on the cake to soften slightly then place in the refrigerator for a short time.
