thanks everyone! the gelatine floewers were actuall the easiest part to make. just look at a thread called gelatin flowers in the forum for instructions. i did use white wire so that the color would blend.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY CRUSTING CREAM CHEESE ICING AND HOW DO YOU MAKE IT.

you can search the threads for crusting cream cheese icing for the recipe. personally it was way too sweet for me and it didn't crust as well as good old regular buttercream,
