My first attempt at handling fondant and gumpaste. It was a wonderful experience, and I had loads of fun. However I must say, I really respect cake artists who have to deal with fondant and gumpaste everyday. The amount of patience needed to make one tiny flower is beyond words.
Don't think I'd want to do it for the rest of my life, but I wouldn't mind making them for special cakes.

Gumpaste daisies.
Red carnations accompanied with pastel pink fantasy flowers.
