My favorite flower is a white calla lily, so when I was searching the internet for decorating ideas, I came upon a picture of a cake with fondant calla lilies. They looked so similar to a leaf that I decided to try my hand at creating my own. I used a leaf-shaped cutter on white rolled fondant and then wrapped it around a bit of yellow fondant that I had rolled in my hand. I made them two days ago and left them to dry and harden.
The cake is a white cake with chocolate ganache icing and covered with chocolate fondant. I bought the fondant since I've been told it's a mess to make and even pros generally buy it when they need chocolate. I used royal icing to do the filigree maze-like piping on the sides and the zig zag top and bottom.
