These measured under 2" in length. Made with modelling paste which I make using a mixture of Flower Paste (home made – see my fb notes for the recipe – https://www.facebook.com/CakesByFifi?ref=tn_tnmn#!/notes/fifis-cakes/petal-paste/465357023548502) and normal shop bought fondant. As with all modelling, water is lightly brushed on as adhesive and kitchen roll is used to support shapes as they dry.

Thank you ;) this is great!
These are so adorable! I love how you lined the inside with the white, and put white in the shoestring holes! It really makes them look so realistic!
