Gum Paste Flower Bouquet

Fresh picked flowers are great for any event! But what if they are not available or are too costly for your event? Gum paste flowers are a good option and can be prepared in advance. The flowers can be used as a cake decoration (using flower spikes to place the flowers on the cake) or they can also be used in a vase to decorate the room. Your guests may not be able to tell the difference unless they touch it (no guarantees though :) ). The beauty of your hand-made flower/flower bouquet is as good as the details that you apply to every part of the flower.

Some of what you'll need: the leaves mold, color dust of your choice, lollipop stick, floral tape, gum paste, icing colors of your choice, buds.

Next time I do this, I will be sure to put together a tutorial. Send me an email or comment if you want the tutorial sooner!
