Wendy Kromer had a similar cake in MS's Wedding Cakes book -- her instructions were to have the pattern laid out, cover with waxed paper, and outline in RI, then flood with thinner RI. When dry, place on cake. Of course, make extras. Rolling Eyes

Hope this helps!

so you're just using your stencil as a pattern then?

How do you turn the corner with the design?

i would just lay the stencil onto the sides of the cake and sweep with royal icing. there is a tutorial on how to do this on the website that makes those stencils. www.designerstencils.com i think.

You can also use royal icing to transfer the pattern.
