Wafer paper is a delicate, edible medium often used in cake decorating and similar culinary crafts. It’s thin, flexible, and food-safe, typically made from potato starch, water and vegetable oil. It looks like a simple sheet of paper but i use it to craft intricate and vibrant floral and animal shapes with lifelike detail wihout using any kind of inner supports.
