Painted Roses

Painted Roses on Cake Central

My first attempt at painting flowers on mmf fondant. They matched the flowers on the bride's dress. Used lusters, petal dusts, and gel color. 14", 12",10", 8". Yellow/choc, white/lemon curd, yellow and white w/berry bc. Flower colors were meant to highlight the colors in the topper.

Critique Subgroup Member: This is a very beautiful cake! I LOVE the painted roses. The surface of the tiers look like porcelain (like the topper). Beautiful colors, flawless fondant, excellent presentation with the stand and ivy. Excellent job!!!

Critique Subgroup Member: OMG! this is the best one I've seen yet.! You did a great job on those roses. Your MMF is flawless, your borders are great, and all of the colors come together wonderfully. I especially love the stand, it just fits the cake very well. If I had to find a flaw, it would be the two wrinkles inthe table cloth :lol: Absolutely beautiful! ;-D
