Rice Paper

What can i use to stick rice paper to a cake without the rice paper dissolving?

Its my friends birthday coming up and im making her a cake as part of my gift. I have ordered a personalised rice paper topping to put on the iced cake when its finished.
However, i am concerned if i use icing sugar mixed with water that the rice paper will disolve? If so, what can i use to stick the rice paper to the cake with out it dissolving?
Thanks

If it’s a flat paper with a design or image, the rice paper is actually supposed to slowly dissolve, but the image stays behind.

If it a 3 dimensional sculpture (such as a flower), it’s better to use it on an unfrosted cake. It might dissolve a little and lose its shape.

Here’s a good article about it. It has good tips for how to apply the flat rice paper design. http://www.essortment.com/food/decoratecakeri_sdzl.htm
