Black buttercream roses seemed like a good idea… 🖤🌹
And to be fair, I think they look pretty fabulous.
What I temporarily forgot was just how much MESS you can make working with black buttercream. 😂
Hands, piping bags, worktops… and of course I had a class to teach afterwards!
These were a special request and formed part of a much larger black, ivory and red 30-cupcake bouquet, so the dramatic black roses were absolutely worth it in the end.
Although I’m not sure my hands agreed. 😂
Would you put black buttercream flowers in a bouquet — or are they a step too far for you? 🖤👇
