So we use fondant to make the cakes look pretty …
Practically speaking, would you eat the entire fondant rose if it came along a piece of cake ? 
I went to a party and noticed that most people kept the fondant flowers and decoration aside but ate the icing flowers , perhaps coz its nicer to eat cream with the cake ..
So the question is , would you eat the fondant flower?
Re: Fondant Flowers ..
**Would i eat the fondant flower ?.. No … its way tooo sweet 
Even though fondant looks nice on cake i think its a waste as no-one likes eating it 
in my house we make/prefer buttercream/ cream icing on top instead its more yummy :)**
Re: Fondant Flowers ..
I don't make fondant cakes because I hate eating it. If I do I leave the fondant out. Fondant is so expensive it feels like a waste but I can't get myself to eat it. So, no I would not eat a fondant flower...sometimes I don't even eat buttercream flowers (too sweet).
Re: Fondant Flowers ..
Hmmmm , what if the flowers were made of flavoured fondant 
Would you still not eat them .. for example , lemon flavoured or strawberry flavoured etc
Re: Fondant Flowers ..
They are so chunky and big though....so I don't know if the flavour would help. Notice though even professionally made fodant cakes are only covered with fondant but the decoration is made with buttercream etc.
Re: Fondant Flowers ..
even thinking about this is making my teeth hurt :/
Re: Fondant Flowers ..
I've never eaten fondant before :(
Re: Fondant Flowers ..
ok so the general concensus is that Fondant flowers is a waste of time and effort but icing flowers are acceptable 
Thanks everyone ..
Re: Fondant Flowers ..
Fondant flowers are really very decorative .It is a nice idea to eat the whole of it.I like your idea.I would try it once.It is flavored enough to make the cakes look pretty.
