You can add regular ribbon I always put a layer of wax parer behind so the buttercream dosent bleed thru

Also, others have suggested to double up your ribbon so the first layer absorbs the oils

You may have to wrap it around three of four times so the oil doesn't seep through but it is safe to use.
