Beautiful cake! How did u get your embossed print to be so well done? Did you emboss the fondant before covering cake, or after? I struggle when using my textured mats.

Thank you for your sweet comments!To make the dalhia, go to awatterson page here on CC, she made a wonderful an easy to follow tutorial. These flowers are easy to make, easier than it appear! For the embossed print, I always make it before I put my fondant on the cake. You have to press a lot to have this neat impression. Hope it can help!

Beautiful cake. Where did you get your stand? I've been looking all over for glass stand that you can feed the ribbon through.

I also love doing dahlia's but I have to ask you HOW do you get those heavy flowers to stay on the side of the cake without falling off?

I glued the flowers with royal icing. It stays very well in place.
