Roses: Fondant Rose Centers


How to prepare rose centers for your Fondant roses:


1) Roll the fondant to be a 1/4 inch thick (use wood rods when rolling to mark the thickness).


2) Use smallest flower cutter and cut your 1/4 inch thick fondant. Each cutout will be the amount used to create the fondant centers.
