Jen's Orchids on Cake Central

Fondant orchids and ribbon, created to match the centerpieces that were orchids in pots wrapped with the same ribbon.

I used the large petal cutter and flat flower form from the basic Wilton flower cutters for gum paste. Cut the petals first, then place them on the form with the veins. I left them to dry on the curved forms overnight. Freehand the centers, and let them dry too. Then put them together with royal icing and brush with petal dust. I bought a silk one to copy. Does that make any sense? I'm glad you like it - thanks!
