Greetings, my dear friends and people of Steemit, today I want to show you how I make these roses to decorate my cakes, this time I will only show you the elaboration of the roses, for those who do not know how to make the fondant, I will soon share the recipe and pass Step by Step.
Materials to be used:
- Fondant
- Transparent plastic
- CMC
- Liquid edible colors
For those who do not know what is fondant, it is a dough or paste similar to plasticine but edible, which is used in baking to cover cakes, cupcake and thus also figures are made to decorate, is based on powdered sugar, You can buy it at any pastry shop.
Once we have our fondant, we take a small portion depending on how many roses we want to make, to that amount we add a pinch of CMC, it is an edible powder, which is what It will give elasticity to the dough to be able to mold our petals and it also helps to dry faster, we knead and we put it in the color that we want
We make a stick type shape, we divide it into equal parts to form round balls, and place them inside the transparent plastic that is the essential tool to manipulate the petals, one of the pieces will give an elongated shape that will serve as the center of the petal , all the others will go oval, it is not necessary that the exact sizes remain, the important thing is to try to place them as finite on the side that will stand out in the rose.
Once we form the center of the rose we are placing the petals, gluing and turning, placing them in the middle where each petalo ends as you see in the figure, remembering that the most finite side is the one that goes on the top.
Finished clocking all the petals we must press the base of the rose to give it a little shape and cut the excess.
I spent many days without making these roses and today I wanted to share with you this method.
These last roses were made by my 7-year-old daughter while I was working. She was learning, I applied glitter and I put a few leaves. He told me ... Mommy put my roses in your post, .. so beautiful my daughter.
I hope you liked it, there are many types of flowers that can be made by hand, then I will be sharing other ways to make nice details to place on your cakes and cupcake.
I leave very grateful for the support you have given me, and wishing them as always successes in their projects and goals.
