I have just found that I can make fondant roses! Woo Hoo It was one of those things I assumed I couldn't do well so I never tried. LOL I have a wedding cake this weekend that has fondant roses cascading down the side. But, the bride doesn't want fondant icing - only butter cream. All the roses are made but seem extremely heavy compared to simple fondant appliques. <br></br><br style="font-weight: bold;"></br><span style="font-weight: bold;">My question is this: How do you attach your fondant roses…</span>
