Add the small pieces of foam in between the petals and then let it dry for 2-3 days. Depending on how dry you want the flower to be. Remember that gum paste dries faster than regular fondant.

You can affix it to the cake with a little royal icing or edible glue. You should be able to just pick it up with your hands, since it should be nice and dry.

Actually, I think that this one is within my comfort zone. Just one thing though I've been grappling with how to make edible stamens. While we know to remove them before eating the cake, that flower might seem mighty attractive to a child, who might try and grab it when no ones looking. Though I haven't tried it yet, but I think the following may work. Orchard makes a product called unbreakable gel which is edible. You can use a sugarcraft gun to extrude it into legnths. Lindy Smith used it for the whiskers for her tiger cake. I've been dying to try it, but I haven't found anybody carrying it here in Australia.
