Gorgeous buds! I make more paper flowers than sugar these days, but needed refreshing and absolutely always have buds in my paper or sugar arrangements! I enjoyed this tutorial, thank you for sharing your techniques❤

[@SweetDreamsBakeShoppe]

Gorgeous!! Thank you for sharing

[@marianadelgado]

Gracias por tu enseñanza. Hermoso trabajo.

[@FinespunCakes]

Thank you!

[@jackygardner5609]

Definitely arranging flowers on cakes is always a bit of a struggle! Great tutorial, love those big buds. No overpowering background music either which always makes me switch off! Your style of teaching is soothing and enjoyable 🙂

[@FinespunCakes]

Thanks, Jacky! :)

thank you very much, really helped me, the result is very beautiful ❤

[@cupcake8509]

Great instruction. I wouldn’t have the music though. It distracts. Normally I turn off sound. Often creatives get stressed with extra sounds when trying to master the instructions , especially ADD & OCD folks. I am both😂Instruction is perfection though. You are incredibly gifted- gorgeous work! ❤️

[@samaimajda8803]

Im in love wiyh your work... thank you so much 🥰

Thank your foe sharing your knowledge..i learned a lot from you..

[@sliceofcouture]

You are so kind and sweet for sharing great tips. I really like your method and the simplicity by which you create realistic and complex looking flowers. I love making sugar flowers but struggle with flower arrangement, would love a video on assembling one and more wafer flowers if possible. Thank you so much, have a great day x

[@FinespunCakes]

I will definitely be going more into this in the future! And my upcoming online class will be covering this this in depth :)

[@sliceofcouture]

@@FinespunCakes great 👍🏽 I look forward to it. Thanks for your reply, have a great day 😊

[@kimcruz3889]

I’m inlove!! Thank you for your content. Looking forward to try your gumpaste recipe, looks promising

[@FinespunCakes]

Let me know how it goes!

[@Jollyjilly58]

I find my petals stick when I used the frilling tool any tips love your videos

[@FinespunCakes]

Rub a tiny bit of shortening on it. If it’s still sticking just leave your gumpaste petals out for 30secs to dry out slightly before frilling

[@Jollyjilly58]

@@FinespunCakes thank you 😊😊

[@angelaiyere6375]

How long does it take to set/dry and how long can it stay before using

[@akeik2449]

Love your tutorials!

[@FinespunCakes]

Thanks!

[@degovea]

Yes, arrangements are a challenge for me.

[@FinespunCakes]

They can be so tricky! I'll be going over a peony arrangement in the upcoming course! :)

[@niceflamengoflamengo1308]

Perfeito seus trabalhos . Lindos mesmo

[@jessheap518]

I recently made a black one, not natural but stunning. So I thought ;)

[@marikoflores7347]

Great instruction 😊How long can I keep the gumpaste for in the fridge?

[@sandraquiriquino8007]

Que hermosa perfecta gracias por tu tiempo

[@carolinewhitaker967]

Hi, could you please give the link for your silicone mat you roll out and cut out on? You put very little corn flour on your mat so it doesn't dry out so much. I can see the link for the sponge mat but not the silicone mat. I have tried several mats and granite slabs and I haven't found one yet that doesn't need corn flour to stop flower paste sticking. Thanks

[@FinespunCakes]

Sure! This is the mat geni.us/XLSiliconeMat or any silicone mat would work great but I love the size of this one.

[@ruthquilab7583]

Love to follow all your vedio tutorials..hope i could make the same as you....

[@FinespunCakes]

Thank you Ruth! Keep on practicing you'll get there! :)

[@maithilyroneshuk6347]

Hi Beautiful flowers Which brand colors did you used for fondant??

[@liabravo7147]

Came from Instagram. Love your work.

[@FinespunCakes]

Thank you Lia!

[@jodip719]

You have the best tutorials I've watched. Thank you for all your time you put into these videos and attention to all detail! I was wondering how you make your gum glue? I have always preferred to work with buttercream for flowers and on occasion modeling chocolate, however, I have a wedding cake coming up in August and it is so hot and humid that I am not happy with the results of modeling chocolate. I'm so excited to try out your gum paste recipe! Burgundy is also my favorite color of Peony! Thank you for sharing!

[@FinespunCakes]

Thank you Jodi! Gum glue is 1/8tsp CMC mixed with 45g boiled then cooled water. Refrigerate overnight then it’s ready to use in the morning. Let me know how the flowers go!

[@jodip719]

@@FinespunCakes Thank you so much! I'll be making both the paste and glue today. I am very excited to make some beautiful roses with it!

[@svetka8149]

Love it

[@atheerart6439]

Great tutorial as usuall thank you for sharing could you please tell what kind of burgandy you used and did you mix colores to get this burgandy ?

[@FinespunCakes]

All the tools are in the description box below the video but the brand is Sugarflair :)

[@BigGen222]

You mention in your videos to roll the sugar paste to size 5 on a pasta machine; what is the equivalent in mm for those of us who don't have one? Love your work too.

[@FinespunCakes]

It should be thin enough that it's translucent. When you have your hand behind the paste you should be able to see the outline of it. I think about 1.5-2mm

[@lericettediloredanameoli486]

Complimenti per tutto un po' di traduzione sarebbe meglio con quali colori si ottiene questa tinta di bordo Grazie mille

Hello i would like to know when i have to dry petals, after composition of flower o before. I have tried composing the flower after drying the petals but everything crumbled😒

Amei a peonia,so faltou ensinar a terminar

[@bvskitchen1045]

Super

[@Atttiittt]

Merci beaucoup 😘

[@CR-pj5pm]

Have you experimented with using something edible instead of a foam ball? A covered rice krispy ball maybe? Or a cake pop?

[@FinespunCakes]

I've never tried! I think it would need to be something lightweight and sturdy so I'd bet the rice krispy would work, let me know if you try it!

[@marianadelgado]

Hola que tal?? Soy de Uruguay. Y realmente si bien en los pétalos de abajo le paso el marcador de nervaduras. Me preguntaba más de una vez para q lo hacía. Ya q esos justamente son los q menos se ven jeje

[@JRS-j9m]

Why foam and not something edible? I'm wondering if you could do this with a frozen ball of white chocolate or hard candy?

[@كوثر-ث7ن]

Can u plz show us how to prepare the gumpast at home

[@FinespunCakes]

Yes I have a tutorial: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qXrZYZScnrGBm5I

[@zahramirjalili6852]

Hey, absolutely love your tutorials. Every little step is taught so patiently, thank you for that. I had a query, I wanted to know if you store your gum paste in the refrigerator at all times unless you want to use it and thats when you bring it out of the refrigerator right? And is there a way to store fondant cakes in the refrigerator? Looking forward to your reply, thank you!!

[@FinespunCakes]

Hi Zahara, Thank you! Yes I do store it in the fridge unless I'm using it. You can store fondant cakes in the fridge, I usually will put them in a closed corrugated cardboard box to prevent excessive humidity.

[@GabrielLima-st6hg]

Porque foi tirado a parte central da peônia aberta?

[@stefaniek5991]

Instead of using styrofoam, would it be a good idea to make a ball of gum paste and let it dry?

[@BigGen222]

That can be a bit heavy and the wire may not support it well.

[@VKPK]

Hai...Nice wods.

[@ogunbiyiitunu3410]

Nice job. Love your video

[@dayanesilva9725]

Não entendi nada doque falou , mas amei perfeito ❤️🌷🌷🌹😍

Could you please tell, what is the black stick? How can i find it to buy? Sorry for me English, i hope U understand what I mean.

[@kaimarquis9399]

Hey! Loved the video! Just one question! You say to store the gum paste in between uses (like the petals) how do you store them while you’re using them? Just covered in plastic wrap?

[@FinespunCakes]

thanks! yes covered in plastic wrap while I’m using, and plastic wrap plus zip top bag in the fridge overnight

[@venusmedler7669]

What dusts are you using?

[@FinespunCakes]

They're all linked in the description box of the video

[@liegecastro9993]

what styrofoam ball circumference? .Thank you so much

[@FinespunCakes]

I'm using both 1.5" and 1.75" here :)

[@bittafouladi6104]

How do I know what rolling to #5 is?

[@somiass]

about 1.5 cm or 2 cm. You can almost see your hand under

[@Julie-jl2kk]

can't u just use water to glue the petals? or is there a reason u like the gumpaste glue instead?

[@FinespunCakes]

you can use either! I find glue helps adhere a bit easier but water works great too

[@ashleighlittle7832]

I’d be making the center edible.

[@amitaadkine4589]

Hii, nice video... Can you share gumpest link, where do you buy it? Or is it a fondant? Can I use fondant instead..

[@FinespunCakes]

It's in the description box below the video :) I make it, I don't recommend fondant it won't hold up

[@lovetoneedles6325]

Which brand gumpast is this?

[@amitarija4348]

Mam.whats the size of stylofoam ball?

[@FinespunCakes]

1.75” diameter

[@barbarapeixoto6366]

Love

[@AzazelsWings]

I absolutely love your flowers, they are truly beautiful, that said, I was rather taken aback and can't unsee no gloves and fingers full of rings. Unhygienic is an understatement. Surprised to see this from a professional maker of luxury cakes.

Are those flowers edible ?

[@FinespunCakes]

Yes they are :)

[@matta4513]

I am curious, are these edible ? or just for décor ?

[@FinespunCakes]

The petals are edible, but usually used just for decor to have food-friendly flowers on the cake

[@matta4513]

[@Anitasharma-ve6kk]

Is this glue edible??

[@daemmerung19]

Oh arranging is definitely a struggle :) it comes natural with real ones but to think ahead and make everything at first... not easy I always struggle with planning and sketching too... I'm such a flow person creativity wise...

[@FinespunCakes]

Takes so much planning!! I agree, I found it difficult at the beginning to know the number and sizes of flowers to make.
