I have recently retired and trying my hand at cake decorating. I really want to work at learning to pipe flowers from buttercream. Where can I find the best tutorials?

ADesignmeacake.com has some great tutorials. I think most are for fondant/gumpaste but there are a few bc flower tutorials

There is a lot of tutorials on here on Cake central. Do a search. Also on You tube. http://www.youtube.com/ Just do a search for the type of flower you are looking for. If you do a general Google search you can also find a bunch.

Any type of flowers in particular?

I made a video for roses made on a stick.

I highly agree about Roland's book It is just great. Lots of wonderful suggested uses for each flower presented.
