Hi everyone!!!

I'm new to decorating with fondant and learning a lot. I was ordered a cake with this kind of bow, how would you go about doing it?

Just make one long strip then take one end and fold it over to the center then do the same on the other end.  Say you want the loops to be 6" from end to end,  then the strip is cut about 7 or 8" long by however wide you want the bow to be.    To keep the loops open you can put a paper towel or such empty roll in until the gumpaste dries some.  A small strip is gathered and wrapped around the ends in the middle.  Then long 'tails' are just wide strips gathered at one end and placed under the center of the bow.

Thank you!!!! I'll let you know how it comes out, it's the "tails" I'm most worried about :(, and the three tiers hahaha, considering I've only done 2 fondant cakes.


Thanks!!!
