I have made poppies before but want a set of cutters and veiners, perhaps from England. Can some one advise what is a good set of cutters, what brand, and also what brand of veiner? I want to make a 4" flower.

Well I guess that the 1st time I wrote, it got lost.  Petal Crafts, SugarDelites, SugarArtStudios, GlobalSugarArt, & Amazon all have cutters & veiner sets.  I just can't remember where I bought mine it was a couple of years ago........ and I have room for improvement.

Your poppy is beautiful! I found a set at Sugar Art Studio I think I might get. I want a veiner with really good definition. Sometimes the veiners don't make deep grooves. Yours looks very life like! Thank you for sharing.

Making Poppies Out Of Gumpaste

This was my first attempt at poppies..you'll have to excuse the shine, I had just steamed them. I'm from Canada but I picked up the cutters and veiners from a place just outside London in September. I believe it was called  Suburton Sugar Craft (the spelling might be wrong on that); their store was in Kingston Upon Thames. I know they have an online store because when I went in and they saw how much I bought they were like "find us on Facebook we'd be more than HAPPY to ship to Canada for you!".

I bought my poppy cutters and veiners from Iced Affair in Camperdown, Sydney, Australia.  (not quite in England) Not sure of the brands - cutters may be Framar. May need to scan down the picture; I couldn't work out how to post it smaller.
