Red Roses!
I watched the movie Titanic once, when it was first released.
I could not bring myself to watch it again as the message was so profound and touched me immensely….
But when I entered the red roses collaboration I knew instantly that
My chosen piece was going to be. It was not going to be any song or any movie. It had to be Titanic and I was going to do my best to express the love story of the movie!
I deliberated a long time in how I was going to create and depict love in sugar.
I finally settled for the floating raft idea.
Every piece of sugar paste added to the board became the love story. It’s been a very enjoyable piece to create and I was very pleased with the end result!
I circled the loved couple with large red roses petals to highlight their love and the small red rose petals to signify the many other souls lost in that tragedy, people that I’m sure also experienced love! Love to all…

Happy Valentines Day!
