Does anyone have a secret tip on how to the petals out of the cutter(s)? I'm having such a difficult time getting my gumpaste out of the cutter without ripping the petals to shreds. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Are you using fondant or gumpaste? I find that fondant really sticks - but gumpaste doesn't as bad. A few ideas are to rub the edges of you cutter w shortening. Also use cornstartch/petal/super pearl directly on your piece of before cutting. I find that these things really help

I use shortening sometimes too. I also use a soft, dry paintbrush to gently push the gumpaste out of the cutter.
