Let me start by saying these little bows are ADORABLE. I used them for my niece's birthday cake, and they added such a sweet, elegant touch. The black color was rich and exactly as pictured – no cheap-looking surprises here!
The pre-tied design saved me SO much time. Just pop them into the icing, and they stayed put perfectly. No sliding, no tilting – even after hours on the cake table. The fabric feels sturdy, not flimsy like some cheap decorations I've tried before.
I did notice one small drawback: if you're imagining separate picks to insert into cakes, these don't have that. You just press the bow itself into the frosting. But honestly? It worked just fine and looked even better than I expected.
For the price, you get fantastic value. I used some on cupcakes, some on the main cake, and even stuck a few in appetizers for a coordinated look. They held up well and didn't bleed color into the food at all.
Would I buy again? Absolutely! These bows made my decorating so easy and professional-looking. Perfect for birthdays, bridal showers, or any party where you want that extra special touch without extra work.
