The candy toppers are very delicate so you have to be extra careful when you're removing them from the parchment paper. Don't press too hard when you're putting them on the cupcake or they can break. To keep the toppers from breaking, make sure you're piping a big enough line of candy and make sure all of the strokes are connected. If you do have some break, there should be plenty of melted candy wafers so you can make them again!
