I am making a cake for a bridal shower on the weekend and just wondering how I make ribbon roses as I think in her case it would be so much prettier than the fondant roses. I am still planning to make these in fondant though - just different shades of pink. Thanks

Ribbon roses are very simple. You roll out a piece of fondant about 2 x 4 inches, quite thin. You fold it lenghtways. So you end up with a piece of fondat that is 1 x 4 inches.
Then you grab one end and start rolling, and when you do the whole thing you pinch the bottom.
They will look something like this

thank you so much for your help - do I need to add anything to the fondant to make them stiffer or will they be fine on their own?
Not really, if you do them like i said, they will stand on their own with no problems
