Ok so I kinda cheated on the roses (obviously, they look crappy lol). We didnt actually learn how to do more than just the base of the rose and the first level of petals. But I didnt want to go home with a cake with no flowers so I bungled my own way thru- ah well, lots of practice will hopefully change that. I have to say I find parts of the course extremely useful. Definitely going to take level 2 and 3 also! (Lemon cake with lemon curd filling - had to use BC recipe in Wilton book for course purposes. )
