- Roll the marzipan into a long cylinder. Cover with plastic wrap.

- Cut the cylinder into 7 to 9 segments ¾ inch long.

- Roll the segments into little balls. Keep them covered with plastic wrap as you go.

- Flatten the balls into petals with one end thinner than the other.

- Place two of the petals on top of each other and begin to roll, starting from what will be the side of the rose.

- After rolling from ½ to ¾ inch thick, put in another petal.

- Keep rolling, adding petals every ½ to 1 inch until you’ve used all of the petals.

- Use the tip of a knife to separate the petals near the top of the rose for a natural appearance.

- Cut off the base of the rose so it will stay on a cake. Angle the cut if you want the rose to lean on the cake.

- Place the finished roses in an egg carton and let dry for 24 hours before using. They will keep for several weeks.
