#Please note, I am a self taught decorator. The way I make things may not be the easiest way or the best way. Its just my way. I have been asked to share how I make my roses so Here is another wee free picture tutorial.

Ingredients
Pettinice with added CMC
Sugar Glue

Tools
Plastic Bag
Spoons
(Plus anything you might find around the house to support outer petals)

Make cone shapes, the size depends on how big you want your rose and how much icing you have to use.

Make a wee ball of icing and push it out between a sheet of plastic. Make it slightly Longer than your cone.

Make it slightly Longer than your cone

Wrap the petals around the cone using sugar glue to adhere it. Make sure the first petal is wrapped nicely around to form the center.

Wrap the petals around the cone using sugar glue to adhere it. Make sure the first petal is wrapped nicely around to form the center Once you get to the fourth or fifth petal bend it out a little.

Next pop your next petals on to some spoons. Make these slightly larger. And remember you can use cutters! You don’t have to use a plastic bag

And remember you can use cutters! You don’t have to use a plastic bag

Remember the bigger you make the rose the larger the next set of petals need to be

Add these with sugar glue. You will need to use something to support these petals. Here I am using some tupperware a wee bottle and some food colouring containers anything will do! Lol

You can stop here or before depending on how big you want your rose!

Or make some more Petals! Make some more slightly larger , (again) petals and place on your spoons or for Really big roses you can use an apple box inner!

Attach these using sugar glue and again support and shape your petals

Walla finished! Make them with fewer petals for buds and increase for a lovely large open rose!

(Leave to dry fully supported! Other wise your petals will droop or crack and fracture!)

And Most Of All Have Fun!

Rose Tutorial Part 1

Ingredients and Tools
(What I use)

½ a pack of 750 gram Pack Bakels Pettinice Ivory or White
With added ½ a teaspoon of Tylose (leave wrapped in cling film overnight to mature)
A Large Snaplock Glad Bag (cut down the seams)
Some dessert and/or soup spoons (I use antique hallmarked ones as they are lovely and deep!)
Some food colour (Here I have used a Chefmaster Gel – Pink)
Some Crisco (or other white fat … I prefer Crisco)
Sugar Glue
A Paintbrush
Method

Get your matured icing (½ a pack of 750 gram Pack Bakels Pettinice Ivory or White
With added ½ a teaspoon of Tylose (leave wrapped in cling film overnight to mature) Put a wee bit of Crisco on your hands and give the icing a good knead. Put a wee bit more Crisco on hands and then add a drop of colour onto a good size ball of icing. Stretch as shown in picture if you want a marbled effect or just knead in if you want a single colour.
Make a wee cone out of icing for the centre of the rose.

Rose Tutorial Part 2
Get your wee cone for the centre, Make a ball of icing. (See image) Place under (between) the glad snaplock bag as shown and push out into the shape of a petal.

Rose Tutorial Part 3

Put a little bit of sugar glue on the inside of the 1st petal and wrap around the cone making sure the petal is higher than the cone. Then make some more balls and push out a few more petals.

Rose Tutorial Part 4
Paint a light small amount of sugar glue on the back of the petals and wrap another three to four petals onto the cone, one at a time. Make some more balls, slightly larger this time. Push out a petal and place it on a spoon. And bend the petals at the end of the spoon into the shape of a petal. (See image).

Rose Tutorial Part 5
Makes some more (about 6 to 8) and put them on spoons, Try to Keep them in the order you made them. (Don’t leave too long as they will get too hard and break!) Put a wee bit of sugar glue on the Base and sides of the petals as shown in image. Then pick up the first one and gently attach it to your centre.

Rose Tutorial Part 6
Add another two petals, keeping them nicely spaced as shown. Gently manipulate your petal shape with the tips of your fingers.

Finally add you last outer petals and leave to dry.

Rose Tutorial Part 7
Once dry you can add petal dust if you require. (If you decide to go bigger larger outer petals will need support on drying!)
