Hi Louise,
Were these made with just mmf? or did you add anything to make them harder? Also do you use molds for the leaves?
27. Louise
May 12th, 2008 3:43 pm
Hi Sophie,
I think for this one I use rolled fondant. I usually dont add Tylo powder to ribbon roses. I used a leaf cutter.

payal: I guess that you could only marzipan is not flexible so it can be hard to make it nicely.

Thanks so much–for all of the information you share! I had wondered, too, what you used (straight fondant or gumpaste), so a little info in the sidebar would be useful.
56. Louise
August 19th, 2009 12:04 pm
Bridget: Depending on what decorations I am making I use mostly: Rolled fondant and gumpaste.

Hi Louise,
Great tutorial! I love these little roses! However, mine seem to get a little cracked on top, where it’s been rolled – do you know why this might happen?
58. Louise
September 23rd, 2009 8:19 pm
Emma: it happens when the paste is to thick/dry. Try and make them with 50/50 gum paste & rolled fondant
