re: Red Baubles Christmas Cake

Hi Sisa, I used a normal rose petal cutter. You just have to make five petals, frill the edges a bit and cyo the middle a bit. Leave them to dry on a rounded surface to give them a little concave shape. Then you have to assemble the flower using royal icing. I cover a styrofoam flower concave form or patty tin with a little foil than put a small piece of tulle (1cm squared) on the foil (the tulle helps the flower from collapsing once the fiol is removed. Then I place a small amount of royal icing on the tulle and arrange the dried petals overlapping each other. I subsequently insert stamens which had been cut in half and without the head in the centre of the flower (in the royal icing) and leave it to dry for 48 hrs before removing the foil from underneath it.
I hope the above is helpful. If you need any other clarifications just let me know.
