How to make a lush rose from mastic. DIY mastic rose for cake

Girls, you asked for a tutorial on assembling a ROSE. I did, but don’t scold me harshly. I tried my best. Do not pay attention to the cracks on the petals, the mastic was old, prepared a long time ago and therefore not so elastic.
So:
I made this bud out of mastic in advance (it needs to dry for at least a few hours). We need him solid.

I put all the preparations under a large mug so that they would not dry out.

On a board for modeling flowers, I rolled out each petal with a rolling pin to make it larger and thinner:

I cut the flower into 5 petals:

And I roll out the edges with a stick and a ball so that they are thin and wavy:

Let's start collecting roses. We take a petal and smear it with water on all sides and glue it to the bud so that the petal is higher than the bud and wind it on it like this:

Take the 2nd petal and paste it opposite the 1st and the same for the 3rd.

Next, we begin to “unfold” the rose. We spread the petal mainly on the left side and at the base of the petal and glue it to the bud so that only the left edge of the petal is glued, and the right one only at the base:

Glue the next two petals in the same way, placing the petal so that its middle is along the edge of the previous petal:

We collect the next petals using the same principle.

Take a toothpick and curl the edges of each petal on both sides:

We turn our curled flower over and smear each petal in the same way, mainly on the left side and at the base of the petal:\


We place it on a wire with a bud and glue the left side of each petal and the base of the petal according to the same principle as the individual petals of the previous rows (the middle of the petal should be on the edge of the previous one). The right side of the petal remains practically not glued. Using your fingers, slightly bend the right side of each petal outward:

Use your hands to correct the bend of each petal. Glue the next row of petals in the same way. Overlapping in a spiral. Check the number of petals so that the rose is symmetrical on all sides. You may have to remove some unpasted petal or, conversely, make another one.
Let our rose dry and begin tinting. Take dry paint and a hard brush with short bristles. I have a brush from a hairdressing store for applying gel when doing nail extensions. By the way, you can buy a lot of necessary things there. From there I have a thin brush and scissors with sharp ends to cut droplets of mastic when making small flowers.
And so, with a brush we take a very small amount of dry paint and apply it to the very edges of the petals in the direction from the edge to the center. Apply to each petal.

Here is our rose before steaming.
Over a kettle that has boiled and turned off, or over a saucepan of boiled water, let’s turn our rose very quickly from all sides, literally for a second. Be careful not to let water droplets fall on the flower. Otherwise, there will be terrible paint stains.

We all love sweet desserts, especially if they are decorated with beautiful patterns, flowers, petals and the like. Great addition, for example, mastic roses will go with a cake or cupcake, as they add romantic, sweet notes to the baked goods. Of course, you can buy them ready-made in the store, but they will turn out much tastier and more interesting if you cook them yourself. Although this is not an easy task, the result will please everyone. With some effort, you can get beautiful flowers that will delight not only the eyes, but also the stomachs of your family and friends. This will be especially interesting for children who love to enjoy sweets prepared in an unusual way.

A few words about cake decorations

Today there are many known ways to make a rose from mastic. It is recommended to prepare the mastic itself so that it is sufficiently plastic, only in this case petals can be cut out of it various shapes and sizes. Roses can be collected from individual petals, which are held together with water. Or you can roll them with a ribbon the same way as flowers are made from fabric. Another way is to assemble a flower from five petals, which are attached to a blank of mastic on a skewer. Several of these preparations create a whole flower bouquet that will delight everyone.

The edges of the petals are made wavy, and the buds can be either open or closed. The only caveat here is the fact that the roses themselves must be completely dry before they can be laid on a flat surface. They can be stored for several months in a sealed container. Let's look at several ways to make a rose from mastic.

Flowers for mastic cake

Ingredients: eight hundred grams of finely ground powdered sugar, twenty grams of gelatin, sixty grams of cold water, one hundred and seventy grams of corn or one spoon (can be purchased at the pharmacy), food coloring.

Equipment: dishes with water, brush, scissors.

Preparation of mastic

Before making roses from mastic, you must first soak them in cold water gelatin and dissolve it in microwave oven or in a water bath. Next, powdered sugar is sifted into the bowl, part of it is mixed separately with syrup, glycerin and gelatin, and flavoring is added if desired. Then add the remaining powdered sugar to this mass in portions and knead like dough. In this case, the mastic should not stick to your hands. With the help of dyes it is painted in different colors. Ready mass cover with a towel for a while to prevent it from drying out.

Rose from mastic step by step

First you need to sprinkle your work surface with powdered sugar. To form a flower, you need to prepare five or six petals. They are sculpted separately. To do this, pinch off a piece the size of a hazelnut from the mastic, roll it into a ball and press it with your fingers so that you get a flat cake, the edges of which will need to be made a little thinner. Moreover, the thinner the edges of the cake, the more delicate the flower will be. The diameter of the petal should be about five centimeters. When making roses from mastic with your own hands, do not forget to dip your fingers in powdered sugar so that the mastic does not stick to them.

So, the first petal is loosely twisted into a tube, and the workpiece is attached to a surface covered with powdered sugar. This blank will be the center of the flower. The second petal is connected to the tube so that they touch only at the bottom. The top is curled in some places, giving the rose a natural look. Using a brush, lubricate the joint with water.

The next petal is connected to the other so that it is slightly tucked inward, one of its edges should be between the first and second petals, and the other outside. Do the same with all five or six petals. Roses made from mastic (we just looked at the master class) are ready! Next, the stem of the resulting flower is cut off with scissors, since it will be thick. The finished rose is placed on a dish sprinkled with powdered sugar. This is how they do it required quantity flowers for decorating cakes, they can be different colors and sizes. You can also cut out leaves from mastic.

Making rose leaves

A piece of green mastic is rolled out into a layer with a rolling pin, having first sprinkled the work surface with powdered sugar. Using a knife, cut out blanks in the shape of leaves. To give the products convexity, they are dried on another rolling pin; you can also bend them with your hands. The leaves should dry for at least 24 hours in a dry and warm room. This is how you can design a mastic cake with roses that everyone will love.

Decorations for mastic cakes: roses with petals

Ingredients: forty grams of soft marshmallows, one hundred grams of butter, one spoon of lemon juice, powdered sugar, food coloring.

Preparation of mastic

Melt marshmallows in the microwave, add butter and lemon juice. Mix everything thoroughly and add powdered sugar in small portions, kneading like dough. Part of the finished mastic is painted in green color, and the rest is painted red or pink, depending on the imagination, then it is put aside for a while.

Making flowers. Method No. 1

Let's look further at how to make a rose from mastic step by step. To do this, take the shapes of the required circle, lay them on mastic rolled into plastic and cut out a round blank. Cuts are made in the circle in such a way as to obtain an imitation of petals. Run your fingers along the edges, making them wavy. Next they take Not a large number of mastic, form a ball and place it in the middle of the workpiece. The petals are twisted by hand, wrapping them around the center. They are moistened with water so that they are pressed more tightly to the bud. In the same way, prepare another blank and apply it to the bud. The number of colors may vary, so you can shape whole bouquet roses from mastic. After it is ready, the edges of the flowers are painted a different color.

Making flowers. Method number 2

After the mastic is made, it is rolled out into a layer and folded so that a small tubercle is formed. Then cut off the ends of the plate one centimeter at a time and cut into strips. The resulting ribbons are rolled into a roll, thus forming flowers. Then the base by which the flower is held is compressed to give it a conical shape. Using a cocktail stick, carefully separate the petals so that the rose has its shape. From green mastic cut out the petals and attach them to the bottom of the flower. If you roll up a large number of such flowers, you can use them to decorate roses made of mastic and it will be located on the entire surface of the baked goods.

Full rose made from mastic

First of all, a core is formed from the finished mastic. To do this, insert a toothpick into a ball formed from it. A thin petal is made from a small piece of mastic so that its tip is pointed and flattened. They make a lot of such petals (up to forty). Using a teaspoon, they are rounded, pressing with a tool in the middle, and then pressing along the edges so that they become thinner than the rest.

Next, roses are made from mastic as follows: the first petal is attached so that its flattened part is located in the center of the base, which was formed earlier. It is carefully wrapped around the central part, then another petal is added so that its base is located slightly away from the first leaf. It is also wrapped and moved to the next petal. This continues to be done until the rose is fully formed.

Adding the finishing touches

So, when the roses are made from mastic, proceed to the formation of the base of the flowers. Then the rose is removed from the toothpick and the ends of the petals are painted with edible glitter or food paint different color. Having made roses from mastic (the master class has already been conducted), add a few more leaves or grape leaves, pre-dried, and place decorations on the cake.

If you plan to make a mastic cake with roses placed on the sides, then it is recommended to connect the flowers together with green leaves to create a decoration in the form of a flower chain. If you want to change it, you need to cut off the edge of the mastic that is wrapped and press it down so that two layers of petals are formed. And if you roll out the edges, you can get a clove.

Roses-decorations for the cake

To make roses from mastic, you first need to prepare the mastic according to one of the recipes given above. Then it is rolled out very thin and painted in the desired color. Next, using a stencil or a regular glass, cut out circles and stack them. The circles can be of different diameters depending on the desired size of the flower; their number is also used at your discretion. It is recommended to take about eight blanks.

How to make roses from mastic?

Then they take the blanks and give the edges a curly shape. To do this, lightly press the edges of the circle with a spoon and, as it were, pull the mastic away from the center. Proceed in the same way with the rest of the pieces from the stack. The finished petals are folded into a bud: a rod is molded from mastic on which they are wrapped. So, each petal is strung on a rod so that the edge of one is in the middle of the other, and instead of glue they use plain water. The finished flower is cut from the bottom with scissors or a knife and decorated with it, for example, on a cake.

Finally...

We figured out how to make a rose from mastic. Although this is not an easy task, it is worth it, because such delicious figures will not leave anyone indifferent. Flowers will especially delight the fairer sex, because there is nothing more romantic than being presented with airy dessert, decorated with beautiful delicate roses that you can eat.

1. Base - truffle mass (like potato cake)

The biscuit is prepared in the microwave in 5 minutes:

2 eggs, 1 tbsp. beat sugar.


Add 0.5 tbsp. vegetable oil, 1.5 tbsp flour, 1 tsp soda, 2 tbsp cocoa, vanillin.


Beat again and bake in a microwave-safe tin of approximately 22 cm at full power for 5 minutes.


Meanwhile, make the filling for the truffle mass:

Melt 100 g of butter with 0.5 chocolate bars, then add 0.5 cans of condensed milk. Stir.

Cool the biscuit a little and while it’s still warm, cut it into small squares and mix it with the filling so that you can sculpt it. If necessary, add condensed milk. I also added chopped prunes

Now we use the truffle mass to form a base for the rose, a cone and leave it to harden in the refrigerator. It took me 15 minutes to bake and prepare the base of the cone:




I did not cover the base for this cake with cream on top, which is usually done for mastic cakes, because the rose petals will cover all the unevenness and they will not be visible. We roll out the mastic, the petals will be round in shape, sometimes I cut off the bottom and left a semicircle. Use the ball tool to make the edges of the petals thin:


Let's start from the top. Place a small round piece of mastic on the top of the cone. Then we apply the first petals, which we do not bend. I had 3 of them.



We continue to apply petals until we get a rose.





Sugar mastic recipe


Master class taken from the site http://povary.ru


In order to make such decorations on the cake you need to use mastic. Mastic can be milk, chocolate, sugar (gelatin), marshmallow, or marshmallow mastic. Sugar paste is used here.


Other mastic recipes can be found here http://katrai.ru/post128816030/


500 g powdered sugar,

10 g gelatin,

50 g water,

Lemon juice (citric acid).

1.Soak gelatin in cold water for 15 minutes.



2.Then melt it (do not boil it under any circumstances, otherwise it will lose its properties).


3.Sift the powdered sugar and gradually add it to the gelatin.

Mix well to obtain a homogeneous white mass.



The mastic should not stick to your hands. If it turns out sticky, then add a little more powder, and if it crumbles, then lemon juice. In general, it’s better to take 2/3 of all the powder at once, and add the rest gradually. If you haven’t worked with mastic yet, it’s better not to add lemon juice - it makes the mastic whiter, but also dries faster. To begin with, you can add a little glycerin or butter to the mastic; it will not dry so quickly. The mastic needs to be kneaded for 10-15 minutes.




4. You should get a plastic mass reminiscent of plasticine.


5. Tint at the end of the batch; if the dye is dry, it needs to be diluted in a few drops of water.





    Making roses from mastic is very simple, you must first divide the mastic into small pieces, then roll them into thin circles, then press them along the edges, brush each leaf with water, and attach it to the center.

We melt soft marshmallows in the microwave (a pack of forty grams) and add one hundred grams of butter and a spoonful of fresh lemon juice. Mix the mixture and add powdered sugar. Mix the plastic mastic. We paint some of them in the desired color, some of them in green. Now let it rest and prepare the molds. The shapes are the simplest, or you can just take the lid. We cut out a circle and make cuts to create an imitation of petals. Use your fingers to walk along the edges and make them slightly wavy. Like this:

    Now let's make a flower. We need to make the middle. We simply create a droplet of mastic and place

    on our workpiece. We twist the petals, thereby wrapping the middle a little. To make the petals press tightly to the bud, moisten them with a little water.

    Then we again make another blank according to the previous scheme. And apply it again to the bud. In general, there are no guidelines. you can control the splendor of the rose yourself, at your discretion.

    You can make entire bouquets from mastic in this way. You can color the mastic in any way food coloring. I prefer gel ones. I’ll also add that the mastic can be painted after the flower is ready. Only the edges can be painted.

Then you need to roll out the mastic into a very thin layer, take a mold, I squeeze out the circles with a glass. And petals will be made from these circles. We start with the inner petals, twisting them into a spiral. Next we follow in a circle:

    There are several options on how to do it rose from mastic. These roses can be used to decorate any cake for a holiday. All the steps shown in the photo, we can put the petals on a circle of mastic, bend the edges, and we will get a beautiful rose.

    To do this, you will need two colors of mastic - red and green (for the petals). Again, let us clarify here that roses come in different colors, so the red color of the mastic can be replaced with any other. Myself Watch the video for the process of creating flowers for the cake:

    Cakes decorated with fondant look very elegant and festive! Recently I also decided to try making something from this material to decorate baked goods. I decided to start by making a flower - a rose. But when studying the instructions, I realized that it’s not so easy without experience and special tools- molds, spatulas, etc., make a beautiful flower out of mastic.

    Stopped, as it seemed to me, at the very simple version, which every housewife should get if she wishes (Figure 1. We make a strip from a piece of mastic and carefully roll it into a roll).

    Roses can be collected with individual petals, holding them together with water, they can be rolled with a ribbon, just like flowers are collected from fabric, and I liked one described method, when a blank of 5 petals is cut out of mastic, as a rule, and it is already attached to a blank of mastic on a skewer.

    Getting started might look like this:

    And in the end, when several blanks are assembled and fastened together, we will get the following roses:

    Naturally, the edges can be made wavy, the buds themselves open or not, but you need to let the flowers dry first, and not lay them on a flat surface so as not to get crushed - this is necessary.

    This will require confectionery mastic or you can cook it yourself. Powdered sugar, rolling pin, board for rolling and rolling out mastic. We roll out the mastic with a rolling pin; by the way, the mastic is similar to plasticine and it is easy to mold rose petals from it. Without rolling it out, you can simply tear off a piece of the mastic and sculpt the petals. Then collecting them and making a flower. Or you can roll it out, then cut circles out of it with a mold or glass. You can watch this video on how to make a rose from mastic for a cake.
