Learn It

This project was made as part of a Craftsy course:
The Ultimate Sugar Rose »

Instructions

These roses are for a demo cake I created for a charity auction. I also created a ring of roses (not pictured) for a spacer between tiers. I LOVE this class!!

Difficulty:

Category: Cake Decorating

Type of item: Food

For: Other

Style: Traditional, Romantic, Classic


Materials

Gumpaste, Silver Luster Dust Paint

What was your inspiration?

I love all the black and white cakes, and tipping the edges with Silver Luster was a take-off from the Maggie Austin Fondant Frills technique that I used on the bottom tier of the cake. Chef Lodge, I think the "fishtail" method of creating the bud is brilliant, and I used it on the centers of my larger roses.

What are you most proud of?

I think the silver both contrasts with the black/white and ties together the entire project.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Just try it!
