This week we continued decorations, this time working in gum paste. This was a sorta difficult medium to work with because it dries relatively quickly and it is harder to assemble pieces together. So far my favorite is marzipan, maybe fondant.
On Thursday we made free-handed flowers, specifically roses and hydrangea petals. The rose was constructed the same as with modeling chocolate so it was pretty easy.
On Friday we made cut flowers, which uses a cutter to form petals or leaves, which are then modified a bit (stretched, flattened, etc) and assembled. I made a black lotus, since I'm a nerd in everything I do.
