Vertical Petal Decorating Technique

Are you familiar with the petal decorating technique? I’m sure most of you have seen it (if not tried it). Well, I decided to shake things up a little. The flow of the petal technique is so pretty, but I get a bit OCD about things and don’t like the fact that on a round cake you have to end the flow with a column of dots. This is a little hard to explain, but if you know the petal technique, you’ll know what I’m talking about. So, I decided to go vertical instead.

Of course you can be neater about it and line the petals up vertically, but I wanted a slightly rustic look. I’m really loving how it turned out, love the look and the bright yellow.

    • Thanks Henna! Give it a go, whether my vertical version or the standard standard horizontal, they’re both really easy.
