Welcome to the Cake Decorators Q&A

I am wanting to make roses to put on the cake. As gold is the colour for 50 I am going to put gold lace around the cake but not sure what colour to use for the roses, any suggestions please.

Hi candy

Gold is such a versatile colour to match against, you have a huge range to play with. I’ve noticed a lot of decorators tend to favour soft pinks but the choice is your’s. Have a look on google images and on pinterest for inspirations. Is this for a 50th wedding anniversary cake?

Yes, it is for a 50th Wedding Anniversary cake. Thank you for getting back to me.

How about taking some inspiration from the original wedding flowers, the cake and wedding attire of the bride and bridesmaids? It would be lovely to include some memorable accents to their anniversary cake.

That is a good idea and something to go on. Thank you!

You are most welcome. A mood board may also help with matching colours. Take a peek here for more information: https://www.cakeflix.com/wedding-cake-consultations-wedding-cake-mood-boards

Good luck with your project, it would be lovely to hear how you get on
