I think its a mold too.  But I really like the effect.  Would love to know where to get a mold like that.

 

I hope someone knows.  : )

They are strips of pleated fondant, stretched into a wheel.  Try it with paper first to get the hang of it.

I think you could do it with these type of formers too.

 

Look at the 2 Daisy Veiner, Formers   there are 2 on this page 50mm - 75mm

So did you try making them?  I am looking to recreate the same look.  Seems like a mold to me but wondered what you ended up doing?
