Old Fashioned Briar Roses

Briar Roses are just beautiful.   Adding them to this cake has made it an elegant and simple look.  All these roses were made of gum-paste and brushed with a little edible petal dust.  I also included some Stephanotis flowers for some added drama.  I finished the cake with an edging of small and medium size beading.   I think it turned out quite nicely.  It’s been out too long and it’s mellllllltingggg…    :O   So annoying when the weather just does not want to co-operate!

Below is a picture of a Stargazer Lily that I just completed, which has also been fashioned with gum-paste and painted with some edible petal dust.  Just thought I would add it the photos, lol.
