From Pathfinder Wiki
- Use a rose petal tip and a flower nail.
- Add a small piece of waxed paper to the flat pedestal of the flower nail with a dot of frosting.
- Position the petal tube vertically in the center of the flower nail and begin lightly squeezing out frosting while twirling the flower nail with your fingers to make a small frosting cone.
- Once the cone is slightly taller than the width of the base of the cone, stop squeezing the bag and pull it away.
- Turn the bag at a 45-degree angle and position the petal tube about 1/3 of the way down from the top of the cone.
- Pipe a petal all the way around the cone at this angle for just one full turn of the flower nail so the ends of the petal are touching.
- Remove pressure and pull the bag away.
- Angle the piping bag at a 45-degree angle or slightly more and position the petal tube on one side of the cone.
- Squeeze the bag gently and pipe a ribbon of frosting about 1/3 of the way around the cone while spinning the flower nail to create a petal.
- Continue doing this until the rose is the size desired.
- Let the rose dry until it is slightly firm, and then transfer it onto your cake.
