Although safe to use alongside edible items, we do not recommend inserting florist wires directly into your cake. It is suggested to use posy picks or Safety Seal to create a barrier.

The metallic paper covering is designed for durability in crafting. With normal handling, chipping or flaking should be minimal. Avoid excessive bending or scraping.
Ensure you are using appropriate tools like pliers for tighter bends. The 26-gauge is flexible but may require some force for sharp angles.
Handle wires gently. If minor peeling occurs, you can try to smooth it down or reinforce with a small amount of craft glue. Avoid excessive moisture exposure.
These wires are intended for decorative and crafting purposes. While generally resistant, prolonged exposure to water or high humidity can lead to rusting. Store in a dry environment.

Compatibility: Compatible with most standard crafting tools, including wire cutters and pliers. For use with edible items, compatibility requires additional food-safe barriers like posy picks or Safety Seal.
Care: Store in a dry place to maintain the integrity of the paper covering. Avoid excessive moisture. Clean gently with a dry or slightly damp cloth if necessary, ensuring the wire is thoroughly dried afterward.
