This cake makes perfect' roses
for Mom on her special day. It is also perfect for that special lady's
birthday and other occasions.
NEEDED
8-1/2 x 11" 1-layer cake (1 cake
mix). This cake pan is a little smaller than the 9x13. It holds one
cake mix nicely.
Long cardboard 24x5", cut to fit
box and wrap with greaseproof wrap or FDA foil - (I used white freezer
wrap)
12 icing roses
2 Piece box with waxed liner
'Card' (make the card of color-flo,
wafer paper, gum paste, white coating chocolate or rolled fondant)
We do carry a BOX OF ROSES CAKE PAN
at Sugarcraft for this.
You would need to be sure the pan
fits in your oven before you buy it. (23x4x2) It fits diagonally in our
oven. Check!

add "stickers" on rose stems
Pipe green tip 67 "fern" (hold bag

at base of each rose. Add tip 352 green leaves. (I like to mix willow green
