Trying To Learn And Build My Portfolio

This was a playing around cake, gonna donate it to the Labor and Delivery ward nurses and doctors. colored Roses are starburst roses with luster dust white ones are fondant along with everything else..well that and royal icing. First time doing stringwork, fondant ribbon wrap, and royal icing design patterns. Really need to practice more. I need dummy cakes. My DH doesn't want to give the cake up. Awwwwww...so sweet

I think you did a wonderful job on the design and your roses! I also like the colors!

carrielynn....very nice work. Your stringwork does NOT look like a beginner's work...and I especially love the piping on the lower tier.

yup. you just cust a starburst into four pieces, microwave for about 5 seconds then shape each piece into a petal. Spiral the first one to make a rose center then over lap each petal. Repeat with another starburst until it is the desired rose. Good luck!

Do you mean the roses are made of starburst candies?
