I was wondering about that (non edible thing). I have used raw speghetti before for guitar strings. Don't know if it might work. You can push it in real or soft cake but think it would break in styrafoam (too hard). You might try rolling gumpaste to use for your stems too. It wouldn't break as royal would and woudn't draw moisture out of the frosting and soften as fondant would. By the way... There are no stupid questions that's how we all learn.

Thank you for taking time to answer what must have been a stupid question. Your cakes are something to aspire to - this cake is beautiful! I'm just beginning to be aware of using wire. The kids in 4H slowly build skills and are not allowed to use anything non-edible (inedible?) until much later. She's in Unit 5 right now and I think Unit 7 is where they are allowed to use inedible materials. Now we know for the future! Thanks.
