Gum Paste Flowers - Part II

This post is the continuation of Gum Paste Part I from a few weeks ago. A lot of these flowers are my first-time. Making gum paste flowers has been my latest obession (besides cookies!!!!!).

Gum Paste Rose Corsage

Originally I wanted to make the talisman roses (closed roses with less ruffled petals) just like this chocolate rose I made last year. I guess it's because the textures are different (chocolate vs gum paste), they turned out to be more ruffled than I expected. I was disappointed at first, however, after dusting them, they looked so much prettier than I thought.....I am loving them!!
