A khaki brown by sugarflair is good for this tone of brown. Or Teddy Bear brown pre made sugar paste.

Use 24 as the best option.

Yes absolutely!

For in person tastings it is £25.00 and this does not include any discount against a booking of customers book with me. I account for the cost of the tastings to be made and a small part of my time.

The largest is just 1 and a half inch across not too big.. with the red roses tutorial these roses are smaller, maybe just 1/2 inch across. As you make them and practice you will get a feel for the sizing that you like. If you allow the petals on the outer side to sit out further then you can achieve a larger looking rose without using bigger cutters. And when they sit in tighter to the bud, then you have a more petite rose.

@@cakemebysurprise thanks you are very kind to reply..many dont! i can make flowers but its the wiring i am new to

@@jibobit my pleasure. Yes the wiring can be so tricky !

The smallest cutters in a set like this will be perfect Or PME rose petall cutter sets are great www.ebay.co.uk/itm/225836635320?var=0&mkevt=1&mkcid=1&mkrid=710-53481-19255-0&campid=5338268676&toolid=10044&customid=Cj0KCQjw5cOwBhCiARIsAJ5njuYhKhrrbrFFCxYDM2Lg3jreKtLvzYQCwioGA3EpnawjLqGeW9gYHCwaAkCfEALw_wcB

Yes oil will work.

I ordered a silicone mould, pressed the sugar paste into both sides. Then glued these together withe edible glue around a bamboo stick. When set firm I painted them :)

I still really love The Sugar Paste and now use it exclusively. Couture has a new and improved formula, which I havent tried yet. So they may be able to match more premium brands now.

thank you for replying. @@cakemebysurprise

Great to hear!

Thank you 💕

Hi Emma, it just isnt talked about enough. All "experts" do is try to sell ways to us how to fix it, when there are babies who just dont sleep, no matter what. Its just their nature. I am so happy that at the 1 year mark it is better for you. You made it through the first year, but i know it must have taken its toll, and even now you will probably need some healing! I know that it took me a long time after to feel settled, and have horrendous anxiety and panic attacks now. Sending my love ❤️

@@cakemebysurprise Thank you so much for the reply! Yes that’s exactly it! The loss of all that sleep for so long, definitely still makes me anxious about getting no sleep to this day! So much so, that I’m always nagging his Dad at the weekends that we can’t go anywhere at certain times because if he doesn’t nap properly during the day, then he sleeps absolutely rubbish at night! I still sometimes feel so alone because of incorrect family ‘advice’ and then I’m judged for being so stringent on his nap schedule and I’m told he doesn’t need to nap anymore when he DOES (else low and behold I’m the one that has to suffer and go to work on no sleep!😡 …I’ve really got to learn to ignore it!) And yes it does need to be talked about more. I had a few conversations with health visitors thinking they would miraculously help me (how stupid that was! 😂)- One day I phoned them because I was DESPERATE at that point where for 3 months solid, I’d had a total of about 2 hours sleep a night broken up into 20-30 minute intervals. This was at the point when he was 7 months old and all the health visitor told me to do was feed him FIVE solid meals a day. Which was ridiculous because I could barely get him to eat 3 meals (he always had loads of breast milk and formula, plus small amounts of solids so I knew hunger wasn’t the issue) It just felt like the whole system was such a joke and I was so alone. Another HV told me to try getting his Dad to put him to bed. But that resulted in me getting EVEN LESS sleep across the night because he was upset I was ‘gone’ So I never bothered addressing it with HVs again and just accepted I was alone. At my most desperate point I tried controlled crying which I was totally against! He slept for 7 hours for 2 nights and then it was back to waking every hour again. Before that I bought a book called ‘The baby sleep solution’ which focuses on gentle sleep training. That worked for 2 nights too where I got 6/7 hours sleep and day naps longer than 15 minutes. But then it was back to waking every hour (or less) It was relentless. I wouldn’t wish it on anyone. It was like torture 🙈 But I survived and it’s made me stronger 💪(And weaker at the same time 😂) I always wanted to be a Mum but it’s not for the faint-hearted! 😂 Lots of love xx

Your story is literally my story ❤ from the relentless no sleeping, to HV just telling me, thats whats breastfed babies do. I called the Crysis hotline in tears once and they sais put him in his own room, to leaving him to cry it out, and he wailed for 45 minutes. It was just awful and how can a child understand that. Yes, we got through it but i think alot of happy times were missed through the trauma of it all. Definitely stick to whats best for you. You need to do what is right for you in order to function through the day. Its very easy for people to have an opinion when they havent experienced anything like it. Xxx

1/2 cup of unsalted butter, 7 cups of rice krispie, 8 cups of mini mallows

So these ones are about 3.5 inches tall and about 1 inch wide. This is usually perfect for couples to share and not be too full to try all the samples.

Hi, the bigger ones are heavier, so you will find they will slide down the tooth picks/bamboo skewers and the sticks will poke out of the top whilst they dry. It also helps them to dry and make sure the sticks are inserted only about half way through the ball, so that you can attached them to the cake this way.

You are most welcome!

Do not store in the fridge. These are ok to leave out when made and will keep. They dry hard.

No frosting, customers will choose either a buttercream cake or fondant. The frosting just adds cost, and more time for tasting preps. Its never been requested as a tasting. How do you do yours? :) Thank you for watching

Edible glue, that is 1tsp of cmc tylose powder mixed with 1 tbsp of hot water, mixed snd left covered to come to room temperature. You can also use egg white by itself. Or purchase edible glues online.

Hi Vee, thank you so much. That is really kind of you to say, and I am so glad these tutorials are useful. I hope to have more content up soon.

That is so wonderful to hear. Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a comment. Yes, keep making flowers!
