Roses And Grapes
5 tiers of buttercream impressed with a lace impression mold. Handmade gum paste roses, grapes, calla lilies, cherry blossoms, stephanotis, sweet peas and ivy. It took me amost 2 and a half hours to set this cake up and arrange the flowers to my liking - the florist/coordinator said he was so impressed with the sugar flowers and just loved them!!1 Thanks for taking a peek!
