Hello. I am doing a cherry blossom wedding cake for my friend's wedding the end of May. I can't seem to find the right cutters for the cherry blossoms. Any suggestions of how to make realistic cherry blossoms?  |

I just used the petal cutters from wilton that you use to make a rose! I didn't know there was a special cutter! |

I use the same Wilton flower cutter. There is a cherry blossom cake in my photos if you want to see what they make. |

Oh wow, both cakes are really pretty! So what cutter do you use? All I see on the wilton website is a 6 petal flower cutter. |

What type of fondant do you use? Do you make MMF or buy a particular brand? |
