Rose's Cake

Very beautiful cake! I love the ribbon rose and the colors. Your board looks great, too. Your stripes are perfect. Excellent job!

Such an elegant cake -- amazing, precise work. The rose is the perfect touch.

Looks very sophisticated. I love it!!

So beautiful! :)

Incredible! Such clean lines! I have to disagree though. I think the ribbon rose is the EXACT rose for this cake and you DON'T need to 'learn' to make one!

beauiful! your lines are so straight and your rose is perfect!

This is fantastic - love it!

This is a amazing!! Everything is perfection!! The rose was the perfect rose for this! Your writing is perfect as well. OMG, I love this!!

It's just lovely.

Incredibly lovely cake! So sophisticated and elegant in its simplicity. You have really showed that a cake doesn't need tons of stuff on it to look great. Love the colors, and I think the white looks gread under the pink and brown. A nice little contrast.

How on earth did you get your lines so perfectly straight & spaced .... it's absolutely beautiful. And I agree, you don't need any lessons, you ought to be giving them!! Well done!

Thank you so much, for all your comments! I really appreciate it :) ellers - I rolled my 'lines' with the fondant smoother, and attached a line from one end to the other. Started by halving the cake, then quarters, then eigths..and so on. I actually didn't have Peggy Porschen book to copy instructions from. I just saw the picture on her website, really liked it, and just figured out in my head how to make it. To my surprise, it turned out alright :)

Beautiful cake, I love the colors and your rose is very pretty.

oh my gosh!! i thought those lines were royal icing! fantastic job!!

That is beautiful and your rose is perfect!! Much too pretty to cut! I like the white icing, makes the stripes stand out more!

beautiful cake! so elegant! I might have to borrow your idea :oops: for my grandma's cake that I'm doing pretty soon..

Beautiful!!... Precioso!! ....Bello!!!!

Very beautiful!!! The color, the design, the rose, everything!!!

WOW! Looks like a perfect ribbon rose to me. You must have used an extruder to get your lines so perfect!!

just lovely. the lines are perfect I do have a question about your cake board. Is that fondant? I tried that once and it was a mess. If it is fondant, how did you get it so perfect and smooth. thanks
