I had some leftover icing from class last night, so I thought I would do a little practicing this afternoon. I think the rose gets easier every time I do it, so hopefully the cake I will post for final class will be top notch! The buttercream was getting a little thin, so I will have to remember to add powdered sugar before I make the final roses. I have found that icing consistency is much more integral to decorating than I thought.
