This cake is beautiful and my inspiration for a cake I am doing this weekend. Just did a test design on parchment.
Would you offer any tips on removing and adding to the side of a round cake?

Hi Stacy,
Are you using royal icing or buttercream transfers?
My royal icing transfers weren’t that big so they were pretty easy to remove from the wax paper/parchment.
This is what I’d do: I’d lay transfer in the palm of my hand and then I’d carefully peel off wax paper.
To attach these to the side of the cake you can use little buttercream. I prefer attaching them onto a chilled cake so when you use buttercream for the glue it sets
fairly quickly and keeps transfers from moving.
Thank you everyone.
