Tropical, Beach & Shells

Tropical, Beach & Shells on Cake Central

My neice and her groom wanted a tropical cake to match their hawaiian theme. These hibiscus were my first attempt at gumpaste flowers. Buttercream,chocolate shells,royal frosting coral. The flwers were starting to fall apart though as it was 100% humidity. Yuch!!!

Love the bluw color with the bright flowers. How did you make the flowers? I have been looking for a hibiscus gumpaste tutorial and have not found one.
