But I would say that 1 day in advance is the best if you can’t wait until the day of delevery. They flowers may get a little soft in the edge but I have not experienced that they were melting.

I really love the semi home-made one that Jennifer Dontz makes: http://www.jenniferdontz.com/viewproduct.php?itemid=dvd001 I don’t eat my gum paste decorations. If it’s not too dry you can eat it though.

There’s a note posted on the link at the bottom to explain. I totally look forward to seeing your new rose tutorial. I keep experimenting with roes – but am not yet happy with the results!

recently i was asked to make a small wedding cake for a friend, and i was wondering if wired gum paste flowers are edible like the non-wired version, or whether the wires are considered a hazard in petals and deemed to contaminate the cake if pushed into it? I would be so grateful if you could clarify if wired gum paste flowers are normally considered edible by professional bakers for their clients.. many thanks =)

You can see it on the photo.

Would very much like to watch, so if anyone has any suggestions would be much appreciated. x

Because mine are a bit too big for the JEM cutters. You can also try and look for “celbuds” from Cel Cakes.

Laverne: It is a very long video, so maybe this could be the problem?

When you come to the “Here” link, click and it will take you over to a flickr site. Now you have to scroll down the page, looking for comments from franjmc. In one of her comments is the rose tutorial video.
