GARDENIA Flower Tutorial: Cold Porcelain , Gumpaste or Deco.

This video shows how to make the popular Gardenia flower, using sugar, cold porcelain or clay. I use Deco Clay and explore it's properties, seeing what works and what doesn't but, as always ,I using techniques used with gum paste flowers. This flower is reasonably quick to make and will be suitable for beginners as well as advanced sugar and clay artists / cake decoration

They are lovely like all your flowers. But I don't need more videos with deco as I am only working with gumpaste 😁

[@maldoori238]

Hi Christine thank you for sharing your skills and Inspiring video . I have never used deco paste and would like to try it . How do you protect the flowers from dust and dirt? Do you glaze them with anything?

THANK YOU a million times over for making this tutorial!!! I'm so happy and I think I may have been one of those that asked and asked and asked ;) if you could make one. Gardenia's we're in my wedding almost 22 yrs ago and I want to make a shadowbox of cold porcelain flowers that were like those in my bouquet. I didn't have a video or any idea how to make a gardenia. Can you tell me where to get the cutters and that veiner? Thank you again for everything! I love your tutorials!
