Hi there. I'm baking my friend's wedding cake, and she'd like a fondant ribbon "tied" with a knot like in the photo below (minus the jewels). Can anyone help me figure out how to make this? Should I actually try to tie the fondant? Thanks in advance!

That's not knotted. It's two strips with a button on top.

Thanks...I guess I'm asking how to make the button?

You can either make a ball of fondant and with a knife tool make some lines in it to make it look like a knot, or you can use a button silicone mold.
