I just knocked over a tray of 2 dz dried paper thin full size gumpaste roses, shattered like glass. For a cake this weekend too!!!!

I'm thinking the expletives could be heard on the other coast!

thats horrible!!!

I was wondering what that scream was, I feel your pain.

That sucks! I hate when things like that happen! And yes, we felt the tremor here in Maryland!!

Oohhhhh, I'm so sorry!! And, yes - I heard that scream!

Oh no! and here I was feeling bad for myself bc one of the petals of my roses (mmf) broke. I feel so bad for you, not much else to say but chin up? (not very helpful either I'm afraid)

Oh boy - time for some recon! I found a bakery that will sell premade gumpaste and royal icing flowers - not the #1 choice but I was suprised that not only did the women think they were wonderful but they cost less to buy then make.

Again - I would rather make my own with my own artistic flair but THERE are emergencys and it sounds like this is one.

Good luck

Working like a dog remaking them, got 10 down. Unfortunately they are not as detailed as the previous ones. Hopefully they will still come out nice on the completed cake.

Good to know. I thought we had an earthquake. So sorry that happened.

Oh no! So sorry this happened. I hate it when those things happen, but it sounds like you are making the best of it and moving on.

Heard you in Georgia! Sorry! (((Hugs!)))

Oh gosh, just heard it in Florida. So sorry But you can do it!!
