Love how detailed u r - u go slow enough for people to keep up and u show exactly how to do each step. Other videos I saw failed me but I now know I can make an orchid - thanks!
OMG I love your way of doing orchids. I have just been asked to do a wedding cake with orchids, & was wondering the best way to make them on wire. Yours is such an easy way. I tried wiring individually each petal but like you said because they are delicate they kept breaking on me. I will try your method so much easier I think. Thanks for sharing Perth WA
hey wilton just wanted to say these are great I've just started to learn how to work with fondant and gumpaste. so once I get more used to it I will try this. because I've just been making 2-D objects in silicone molds. now that I saw this I may try. thanks for all the great videos with "tips" and tricks.
I am so happy to hear you are enjoying and learning from these videos! That's exactly why we do it! If you post any of your creations to social media, please be sure to tag us- we'd love to see it! -Stephanie
Though the flower constructed in this video did not resemble the examples shown in the beginning, I was able to follow these steps to create an attractive orchid! Important note: This video omits the detail that one of the sepal lobes does not match the other two, being longer and at a different angle (like the 'stem' of a letter Y). The two petal cut-outs should be attached on either side of the longer lobe of the sepal piece. Otherwise the finished orchid will appear lopsided.
Modeling chocolate. More forgiving than chocolate and tastes better too! (I think anyway) You can also use fondant with tylose powder. TH-cam had tons of vids. Check one out! Lots of luck and happy eating!💞
Hi Renee! Working with fondant and gum paste are very similar. However for a flower like this, I suggest using gum paste because it dries hard. Let us know if you have any other questions. Thanks for watching! -Stephanie
Hello, I am so sorry to hear that you are disappointed. Our decorating room created the instructions as well as the flowers on that cake, and I worked closely with them for this video. We also have step by step instructions (with photos) in our Wilton Gumpaste Flowers book if you'd prefer to look there. Thanks for watching and for your feedback! :-) -Stephanie
I was just wondering if I was the only one who saw this as well. The end result looks nothing like orchids. I was really hoping to learn how to make my fav flower. But good tutorial anyway.
I keep trying to work with gumpaste but so far I have not got good results everything keeps snapping where could I be going Wrong? I've tried adding tylose powder and making my pieces thicker and even left them for a week to dry before I touched them again as soon as I get it looking nice and held together bam a petal snaps off. and don't get me started with fondant it's even more of a pain to use.
I love orchids, probably one of my most favorite flowers besides the venus flytrap! I would love to see a flytrap tutorial. (Though I don't think many people would see that. Maybe you guys can do the tutorial for Halloween. lol)
Venus flytraps always make me think of the musical Little Shop of Horrors! That would be a perfect Halloween flower! Thanks for the suggestion! -Stephanie
Not sure exactly what type of "orchid" this is supposed to be, but if you were aiming for a Phaelenopsis...you missed! First, Phal's don't have "ruffled" petals, Steeples belong on churches, not Orchids, and lastly, your "center" was placed sideways. Might want to practice a bit before your next "Tutorial"! As both an orchid grower and amateur Gum Paste flower maker, this was painful to watch.
Lee Ann Johnson you're quite a Ray of sunshine aren't you? Didn't your mother ever tell you, if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all.
I am a sugar flower artist/cake artist mam, and ilove moth orchids on my wedding cakes, im sorry but this is not a moth orchid, the first one on your vid is diff from these:(
Your camera work needs work, it doesn’t focus enough on what you’re actually doing. Plus the way you thin your petals looks like you were about to rip them.

These orchids are so pretty! I keep seeing them at Home Depot and am always tempted to buy one.
Thank you so much! Aren't they such a beautiful flower? If you are better with plants than me, you should definitely get one! :-) -Stephanie

It might be kinda hard, but I think daffodils would be really pretty
Thank you for the video, but, in the end it was a twisted Orchidée, you didn't put the center end the good place :(
Beautiful
Thank you! -Stephanie

I'm sorry but this demo looks nothing like the Orchids on display at the beginning of this video. Very deceiving and disappointing.

coffebug you may be rolling your flower paste too thin, or your flower paste may be wrong. I don't experience snapping. Only when I roll it too thin.
Would like anthurium
Calla Lily flower :-)
poppies! please!
Great suggestion! Thank you! -Stephanie

I'm kinda dumb to ask this but gumpaste are edible
Gum paste is edible, but it's not very tasty and it dries rock hard so usually it's just used as decoration rather than for eating. :-) -Stephanie
a tulip
Thanks for the suggestion! We have a buttercream tulip video on our page if you'd like to check it out :-) -Stephanie

Visit cakelosophy, shes way better!
Your camera work needs work, it doesn’t focus enough on what you’re actually doing. Plus the way you thin your petals looks like you were about to rip them.
This looks nothing like orchid
Did anyone else see that some of her nail polish is on her skin
I don't like Wilton videos; they don't have the OEFFF!!!
