Peach Wedding Cake

Last weekend I had to deliver a coral/peach colored theme wedding cake.

It was a 3-tier cake with extra large peach/coral colored gum paste rose.


The Extra Large Sugar Rose
For the extra large gum paste rose, i always use egg shape foam.
The bigger the egg shape foam, the larger the rose is going to be.
So i used a real size egg - egg foam about 5cm in height.

I posted how I make XL gum paste rose here.

I made the gum paste rose leaves manually.

Started with the leaf silicon mold.
I used a universal leaf silicon mold for these leaves.
Rolled the green leaf colored gum paste on it.
Cut the leaf shape using scissors.

'Peel-off" the leaf carefully then thread in floral wire.

I made some unwired.

I used this tool to create rose leaf edges.

Once finished and dried, i brushed all of them with confectioner's glaze.

For the calyx, i use Clematis cutter,
and create the edges the same as rose leaves.

This is the finished product :)

A Really Extra Large Sugar Rose

I made extra large sugar roses using round shape foams  :)

Put glue gun on the floral wire,

insert it in the middle of round shape foam,

"tie" the top of floral wire as in the photo.

Use gum paste to make the cone.

Start putting on the petals using sugar glue.

I leave it to dry for 30 minutes.

Continue with more petals - as usual.

Keep adding rose petals.

See how it gets bigger now?

Ready to be dusted.

With Cake Love,

Lena :)
