I made this cake for a good friend's birthday party. It is an 8-inch round cake decorated entirely in buttercream icing. I used Wilton's Rose icing coloring for the pink on the cake, and blended that with Red-Red and Pink for a deeper color on the roses. The leaves were tinted with Wilton's Kelly Green. For you fellow cake makers-- the best tip I ever found online for making roses: use an unwrapped Hershey kiss in the center instead of piping a cone of icing! The kisses hold their shape so much better and allow for taller, more uniform roses... plus a sweet surprise in the center!
