How to wire wafer paper

I get asked the same questions over and over again, so I decided to start a series on Youtube: Ask Anna. I’m going to answer your wafer paper questions and show step-by-step how to work with edible paper.

In this tutorial, you will learn three ways of wiring wafer paper – from a simple leaf to a double-thickness wafer paper petal. Let’s begin!

Wire brands I recommend: PME, CK Products, Sunrise Floral Wire.
My most used sizes are 20 gauge, 26 gauge, and 30 gauge.
