Clay cake decorations

Hello,

If the cake is not being consumed I’d say there is nothing to be concerned about if it’s out of reach of any little ones!

If it was going to be eaten I think some kind of barrier between the clay and icing should be used. 

This could be a glaze on smaller items or a barrier between the food and decoration of larger items such as a model of a couple to be wed sitting on a base which could be positioned on a piece of parchment or foil cut to size, for example.
