re: My first tiered cake

Thank you all :) Anointed, I made the roses with a round cutter. I always make the cones 2-3 days in advance to let it dry so it’s easier to work with. I roll out gumpaste really thin and cut the petals with my round cutter. I soften the edges a little bit with a ball tool. I wrap the cone with a first petal and then I add 3,5,7,9… petals or even more depending how big you want the rose to be. I also like making roses in 3 different shades just like in the picture so I simply color my gumpaste :) hope it’s clear :)
