Description
I have worked as a cake designer and a pastry chef in New York City. I am going to show you an easy, step-by-step way to make a peony out of gum paste/fondant. The process is one I have created to make peonies. I have used it in my own business and at various restaurants I worked at such as Nobu in Tribeca, New York City.
