Sugar roses easy to make without molds

Greetings, my dear friends and people of Steemit, today I want to show you how I make these roses to decorate my cakes, this time I will only show you the elaboration of the roses, for those who do not know how to make the fondant, I will soon share the recipe and pass Step by Step.

For those who do not know what is fondant, it is a dough or paste similar to plasticine but edible, which is used in baking to cover cakes, cupcake and thus also figures are made to decorate, is based on powdered sugar, You can buy it at any pastry shop.

Once we have our fondant, we take a small portion depending on how many roses we want to make, to that amount we add a pinch of CMC, it is an edible powder, which is what It will give elasticity to the dough to be able to mold our petals and it also helps to dry faster, we knead and we put it in the color that we want

We make a stick type shape, we divide it into equal parts to form round balls, and place them inside the transparent plastic that is the essential tool to manipulate the petals, one of the pieces will give an elongated shape that will serve as the center of the petal , all the others will go oval, it is not necessary that the exact sizes remain, the important thing is to try to place them as finite on the side that will stand out in the rose.
