Hey everyone. I have a wedding cake order and the bride wants fall-colored royal icing or gumpaste gerbera daisies around the base of the bottom tier. I have not seen daisies of the size I need at any of my usual haunts like Sugarcraft.com - anyone have any thoughts on where I can buy some of these? Colors would be Orange, Yellow, Red, maybe Brown as well.

I tried to convince her to use silk flowers because she is on a budget, but she wants either the real thing or sugar. icon_cry.gif

Thanks!

I've never bought them but I've made them out of fondant with large daisy cutters and they were fairly easy to do and could be made any color you wanted. Maybe someone else here will have a supplier for you.

Go to globalsugarart.com They have tons of different cutters and they do have gerber daisies from 1" to 3" in sets or separate. There is alot to look through but you can find them.

I've ordered from them with great success and received fast shipping and no problems.

Good Luck on the cake.

AWESOME! I forgot about GSA, I have ordered from them once before and apparently didn't save them in my favorites. Thanks!
