Bring them a smile in an otherwise difficult time. Sure there not well enough to go out and celebrate, so they'll appreciate the rememberance.

Comment by Goreti on September 12, 2014 at 9:49am: No I didn't. I usually don't but I can usually get it pretty smooth just takes awhile and I really wasn't in the mood for it. This really was a last minute thing. I had to refrigerate the slurry & put cake in the freezer in order to get everything cool so I could put it together because I won't have time today.

Comment by June Kowalczyk on September 12, 2014 at 9:46am: Looks pretty smooth to me! Do you add a cup of icing sugar and meringue powder? I found if I didn't do that..it was too soft to pipe, crust or smooth..

Comment by Goreti on September 12, 2014 at 9:44am: Thanks June. I should have worked a little more on smoothing it out but yesterday everything went wrong. By the time, I got around to the cake I was already tired & cranky. Just wanted to get it over with. This was the cooked frosting which I find it a little challenging to smooth anyway. Just didn't have the patience. Still not in love with wafer paper. Have a hard time getting the petals to stick. I've tried piping gel & water. Prefer working with gumpaste but have to admit this is sooooo much faster.
