We caught up with the lovely Alessandra Zecchini over the long weekend as she was down promoting her new book at local farmers markets and stores. "Party Food for Girls" is her first book with her daughter Arantxa. It includes really pretty ideas and directions for decorating cupcakes, biscuits and desserts including these fondant roses.

You can see and read more about our fun making the fondant roses together on Alessandra's blog here.
