The colors are striking. I think you did a good job for your first wedding cake!!! Practice and more practice is the only way to get the roses right. I used to sit w/ a huge bowl of icing and make roses over & over & over. You can "cheat" by starting w/ a Hershey's kiss or a gumdrop as the foundation maybe until you become a master at making the rose petals, then work on your base. Keep up the good work.

Awesome job for first wed cake! One trick for bulging is to let cakes "settle" after putting top layer on, then take spatula around and smooth and bulges. It took me a couple to get right. And my first one wasn't as good as yours! Keep up the great work!
