Can anyone please help me on how to make a Keira rose?? It looks very similar to a peony so I’m guessing I might need to use my peony cutter? I can’t find any tutorials at all!! Any help will be greatly received!! My friend really wants these on her cake. Can feel panic starting to set in!! Thank you :-) x

I wish I could help! I’m no sugar flower expert by any means, but looking at it, I agree——I would go with a peony cutter, & to me the center looks kind of ‘balled up’ almost like a ranunculus. Maybe make a ranunculus with peony cutters? Does that make sense? LOL!

I love David Austin roses. I used to own a landscaping company, & I specialized in true antique roses, Austin roses, & English perennial gardens. I’m a rose FREAK!!! :-) Can’t wait to see how you do with this one! You’ll be great!

I don’t know what a Keira Rose is but when I looked it up on google it seems like a David Austin Rose. Are they the same thing?

Oh am excited to see how you do with this one, I am hoping to have the Keira rose in my wedding bouquet and would be lovely to replicate for my wedding cake. Good luck, although am sure you don’t need it x
