Course 3 Grand Finale

Course 3 Grand Finale on Cake Central

Finally, here it is! I thought I'd never get these roses finished. This is my first tiered cake and my first time covering round cakes in fondant. Comments and constructive criticism welcomed! Thank you to everyone on CC who helped me with my roses!

You guys sure know how to make a girl feel good! Thanks again! Marecip - The crosses are actually the FMM Daphne cutter, just didn't put a center in them. And yeah, these are my first roses! I got a little obsessed with them I think. lol

That is so very beautiful. As has already been mentioned, the roses are so perfect.. so delicate. Would you share how you coloured them?

peacenique - Thank you :) I just made the roses with white fondant, let them dry, then used a soft decorators brush to dry brush the pearl dust on the edge of each petal.

Thank you guys! The roses are fondant, and I used a diamond impression mat for the design on the sides. Trust me, you'd be able to tell if I tried to free hand them. :lol:
