I have used Tootsie Rolls for chocolate roses. They turned out great and tasted great, too!

Do a search for tootsie roll roses and starburst roses -- they're done the same way.

This one shows how to make a rose with starbursts. It gives you the general idea. HTH

Same as other color fondant , just use chocolate fondant.
