Anyway, If you've worked with fondant before, these are pretty easy and great for a beginner like me. I colored the fondant, rolled it flat and then cut some uneven strips. Then, I just started at one end and rolled them up. This was even easy enough for my six-year-old niece to pull off. Take a look:
I used:
Wilton Rolled Fondant
Wilton Icing Colors I used red and a little purple to make them a deeper color. These products can be found at most craft stores.
Here's an even prettier ribbon rose method by CakeJournal.

Those cupcakes are so beautiful! I'd be afraid my fondant roses wouldn't look like roses if I get my hands on them.
Beautiful, I may just have to try and hope they look half as nice!
As usual, I am floored by your talent. And they're delicious too...doesn't that make it even better!?
They're lovely... just like little heaven flower pots ;-)
The cupcakes are beautiful! The roses look so lifelike. Great job!
Beautiful!
Your cupcakes are beautiful and inspiring!
I made a couple cakes with fondant and haven't touched the stuff since, but this seems much more doable! They look awesome!
where do you get your lollipop sticks?
awesome stuff, by the way.
I am in awe by your ideas and beautiful pictures from your blog! What a talent you have.
I've never used fondant - - but I think you may have inspired me to give it a try for this valentine's day.
Absolutely beautiful!!!
Oh my goodness, I LOVE this site. I found you a week or two ago and every time I read a new post I am so blown away by you!
These are super cute and so easy for a big wow factor! Just this weekend I was playing with my daughter and her play-dough and realizing how simple it is to make flowers this way...but did I think of doing it with fondant on a cupcake?! Of course not!! Only Miss Bakerella herself would!
Oh, and PS....couldn;t agree more with evite about those little cake pops....the next big thing INDEED! I am recommending them to a bride and will totally be using them for some birthday parties in the future too! YOU RAWK!!!!
Beautiful! I marvel at your great ideas...trying the cake balls tomorrow!
Gorgeous, gorgeous stuff. So pretty and feminine and perfect.
I love these. They are so beautiful and I've wanting to experiment with fondant ...now I have a good reason! Valentine's Cupcakes for my neighbors.

These are so beautiful! I found your site a few weeks ago and have been wanting to make the lollipop cakes ever since.
I added a link to you on my blog. I hope you don't mind.
Thanks Hearts and Crafts!

leta joy - I love that site. I was inpspired by her mini pies for one of my earlier posts.
Laura - thanks!
Your cupcakes and your site are inspirational. Lots of great ideas. In fact, I featured your cupcakes as a top treat this Valentine's Day.
I am sure to come back for more.
They are cute. Once again I would take care with my presentation. The "roses" look very heavy. They should be light and delicate. Imagine serving something that heavy to a wedding guest. Also watch your color combinations. Dark colors are never a good choice in the baking world.

These are SO pretty! I have never worked with fondant before, but it is definitely something I would love to try.
Kim Vallee - thanks so much.
DIVA - These were just for fun and family, but thanks for the suggestions.
downtown boutique - you should try. It's fun to play with.
Oh my, I am so sure we will be seeing you in mags and on tv. Thank you so much for sharing and giving through your blog, you are such an inspiration.
Oh my! You're amazing!
just found your site. All of your treats look so wonderful and your photography is great too! May I ask what type of camera you are using? I'm looking into getting a new one and I've been asking people with great pictures what they're using.
Thanks!
Lori
bev - I don't know about that, but thanks for the compliment.
puglyfeet - thank you!
Lori - I use a Canon Rebel Xti. I love it!!!
I am no expert, but I LOVE the dark colors (especially in a monochromatic setting, like you have done). I saw these cupcakes, and I really fell in love. They are the cutest things I have ever seen and if I were getting married, I would want to hire you to make these as my wedding cake!
le tres chic boutique - thanks so much.
