Dried Flowers on Wedding Cake?

Q. - I want to decorate a wedding cake with the flowers - is this okay? I want would like to try to preserve my flowers with silica granules, but I'm worried about it being poisonous.

A. - We would suggest you use freeze dry flowers. They look like fresh flowers sitting on a cake.

All preserved flowers have a preservative on them, therefore, I would suggest that you not lay the flowers directly on the edible part of the cake.
