First gumpaste Poinsettia

wonderful and so lifelike thanks for sharing this. I plan on trying one soon.

You did a great job. It's worth the time to make all those parts because it looks so much more lifelike.

wonderful!!!!!!

Oh! My! That is beautiful!

love the way it looks so real you did a remarkable job :D

Very well done!! Looks fantastic! ;-D

oh wow!

Beautiful :D

Loucinda - this is gorgeous! I love it. Loooks so real - what cutter did you use? Where did you order it? How did you make it? I L-O-V-E, love it! :D

Wow! I tried my first poinsettia last week so I know how much time they take. This one is so much prettier than mine. How did you make the dark shadows in the petals? i

Thank you for the nice comments. I used the small cutter set from GSA. (and the veiner from there too)

The shading came from the airbrushing and dusting with raspberry petal dust. (I wish I could take credit for how it turned out, but they just came out that way!)

Beautfully done, love your color shading :wink:

perfect job :)

Gorgeous!

Nice, I just did one in candy clay

beautiful...great job!!!

Wow Lou, you did a great job on that!! :D

So pretty! I want to make ones that look like that! So perfect!

Loucinda, excellent job. I wouldn't worry about the "green" look at a fresh ones and you'll find they have a green cast at times. The red leaves aren't the plants petals. I think your poinsettia is very real and fresh looking. It's going to be an awesome cake!
