If your budget is conservative, a sugar paste ornament is probably out of reach. They can range from a simple large flower that may cost $30 to a very elaborate beautifully arranged selection that could easily top $500.

Sugar paste can also be used to make all types of figurines to top your wedding cake. Normally, if it can be made out of ceramic or plastic it can be made out of sugar paste or other types of edible sugar products like modeling chocolate or pastillage.
