After using a 50/50 mix the roses were much lighter. I ended up only using the toothpick they were made on. It's not quite as polished as the original but for $2 a serving - I think it turned out great!<p style="text-align: left;"><img width="540" src="http://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/2772103584?profile=RESIZE_1024x1024" alt=""/></p>

You have to be very careful not to have the roses too heavy. I had done a wedding cake with the fondant swag coming down the side on buttercream frosting and it turned out beautiful - but when the bride got to the reception at her house that swag had pulled down the whole half side of the cake.Try to make the roses a little more lite weight if possible.

my first thought was....and believe me I may be way off base....but what about running a fondant "snake" down the cake surface where you want to place the roses, the you could possible just attach with water of gumpaste glue or toothpics...

Thanks Diane! I had read somewhere about the 50/50 mixture. I'll try that this evening. I'll try thinning my petals a little more too. I started making the roses based off some instructional video on youtube. Loved that the girl didn't use special cutters. I'm pleased with the look - I was just worried about the weight. I do not have them on a wire but they are drying on a toothpick.<br />
