Can someone please give me some clear instructions on how to create these? I've hunted through the forums and keep coming up empty and the only instructions I found I didn't understand. I saw him make the three circles on the show and went "???HUH???" and now I'm dieing to learn how to make them. I completely suck at making buttercream roses so I would love to know how to make these and could apply them to fondant and tootsie rolls and starbursts too. Thanks so much!

bump!

Wow, I had never seen these done before! Thanks for all the great info! I'm just starting to really get into cakes, I've always been more of a cookie kind of girl... But all these great pictures and ideas are really motivating me to try new things. I've never even attempted fondant... I know you can buy it already made but i'd rather try it myself... Fingers-crossed.... I hope it turns out because these roses are gorgeous and I can just imaging the possibilities!

This is really a wonderful place!

I've been doing fondant 'Duff roses' all night and after about my 10th rose, I realized I needed another disc (petal). So, I've been making them with 4 discs and they look pretty good. For added depth, I've been dipping a dry paint brush (small) into my luster dust and gliding it into the folds. I really like making these!

I did buy a bag of Starbursts to see if I could make them that way, too, but after I burned the heck out of my thumb pushing on a SUPER hot pile of goo (I didn't think 10 secs would be too long!) I've decided to shy away from them for the time being. All I really need are about 3 dozen fondant roses, and I'm good!

Thanks to all the CCers for the tips on how to make these. They're turning out better than I'd hoped...yea!

These are so much fun to make. I was practicing with some left over grey fondant I had after making a Star wars Death star Last night. And beside the fact that they were ugly grey roses they looked pretty cool. And they are so easy to make!! Thanks for the tips!
