When asked how the roses were made.

I actually used clean rose leaves and painted them on the underside with 2 coats of melted dark chocolate. I let them cool between coats and then let them cool a further 30 minutes before very carefully peeling the leaves away from the chocolate and what you see is the result! I am very pleased with how they turned out!
