Rose flowers are a beautiful decoration for cake decorations, whether on a celebration cake, cupcake, cookie, or other pastry. Chef Alan demonstrates how to make a buttercream rose step by step using Wilton decorating tips 102 and 104. The process involves setting up tools such as a decorating bag, stiff consistency frosting, and a flower nail.

To create a rose base, use tip 12 and Flower Nail 7, holding the bag straight up and slightly above the center of the waxed paper-covered flower nail. Use either a 1M frosting tip or 2D frosting tip (closed star) to create a rose pattern. The 1M frosting tip is one of five tips included in the tutorial.

Buttercream flowers can elevate a simple cake to an impressive work of art in just minutes. To create a rose pattern, let the rose petals dry in the spoons for 15-20 minutes, then brush the lower half of the petals with Tylo glue and arrange them around the rose.
