Red Velvet Fondant

I took my final scheduled cake decorating class last Saturday. It was the fondant class. All the previous classes had been decorating with buttercream. Since I had worked with fondant before, it was mostly review, but I did learn how to make fondant roses. I also learned that Satin Ice fondant is much easier and tastier to work with than Wilton's. I bought the tools to make the roses at home. I made a red velvet cake in honor of the Christmas season and also as practice for the upcoming wedding cake I'll be making. I love the contrast of the white and red. I have the option of taking more classes. I haven't decided whether I will yet or not. I would like to learn how to make more flowers.
