Today's project is how to make this kind of roses.
We need the following.
Color the gumpaste with your desired tint. I chose lavander here since it's what I needed for my cake. As you could see, I am using 2 5-petal cutters slightly different in size. Aside from these, you also need a #22 flower wire which you could find in your local baking or craft stores.
Bend the tip of the wire as shown above and dip in your edible glue. Get a piece of gumpaste, form it into a tear, and stick the tip of the wire.
Role out your gumpaste and use the smaller 5-petal cutter (which you could buy from online store Baking Buddies from this post).
Thin out the edges with a ball tool, on top of the flower foam.
When done, turn it upside down. Push the middle of each petal with the ball tool.
Pinch/role the edges out as shown in photo.
Put glue on the edges of the petals.
Get your bud and stick it on the middle part of the petals.
Bring one petal up. Skip one petal and bring the next petal up.
The remaining 3 petals become your second layer of petals.
Get another set of petals and do the same process. This becomes your 3rd layer.
Get your bigger cutter. Cut two more sets. Do the same process with both.
Et voila! You have your rose. Just let it dry. You may add some luster dust after.
Happy sugarcrafting!
