Making Fondant Flowers

There are a couple methods to making fondant flowers. They are really easy to create. You can create fondant flowers by using cookie cutters, shaping your fondant into a rose or using cake decorating molds.

How to Make Fondant Flowers

It is really easy to make fondant decorations by using different shapes and sizes of cookie cutters. Roll out your fondant you are using for your cake. A good idea is to use different shades or colors so your flowers will coordinate and stand out more.

Cut flowers out of your fondant with flower shaped cookie cutters. Use your finger or pastry brush and dip in a glass of water. Rub the back of your shapes with your wet finger and apply to your frosted cake. Rub smooth.

Making Fondant Roses

Cut a 2-3 inch strip of your fondant. Fold in half lengthwise.



With the folded edge facing you, twirl strip and pinch ends. Cut any excess fondant off the ends if needed.






You can make fondant leaves by using cookie cutters as well. Add lines down the center and sides to resemble a leaf with fondant tools or knife.
 

Making flowers with flower molds

You can create easy flowers with silicone molds. Sprinkle your mold with powdered sugar and press a small piece of fondant in your mold and press filling all edges. Continue to add small pieces until your mold is full to the top. Take out of mold. Use your flowers in your cake decorating. If you are not using your fondant flowers immediately chill them in the fridge until ready to use.
