I used Cupid's Cake Decorations Modeling Paste for this.
It can be rolled out very thin, dried very quick and very light in weight.
Although it measured 24 cm / 9.5" from one end to the other, this flower was not heavy at all.
They dried crispy thin, I broke 1 petal, lucky I made enough.
I also used "Cake Art" brand of Gold Lustre Dust and green florist wire from the same shop.
I must say this modelling paste is very similar with
Squire's Kitchen Petal Paste which can be rolled into a very thin petals,
and they dried quick too.
The downfall: must be very careful when handling them,
they are crispy thin, break easily.
I have no complaint though, still happy with it.
It took me 2 full days to make this flower, to be more precise from 9am to 8pm.
The result is a Giant Blossom Peony
measuring about 24 cms / 9.5"
from one end to another,
which is larger than the middle tier of the cake.
