Modeling chocolate roses are probably the easiest way to make edible roses. In addition, you do not need special tools or cutters, just modeling chocolate and your fingers to form the petals. And, this simple and detailed video tutorial will show you four different methods for making chocolate roses whether you use dark, white, or colored modeling chocolate paste.

Before I became a professional cake decorator, the one thing I made a lot of was modeling chocolate roses. In fact, I didn't have any cake tools. But, I loved decorating cakes. So, the joy of modeling chocolate roses onto a cake and watching people get so impressed was really cool.
All you need is to make your modeling chocolate, which I have already shown in my previous post: How to make dark modeling chocolate as well as How to make white modeling chocolate. Most importantly, I have shown you how to make this with microwave as well as without a microwave, using a double boiler method.
Here, I have used my chocolate roses on top of a chocolate cake. In addition, they are even dusted with edible gold dust.

Coloring white modeling chocolate
Firstly, you can color white modeling chocolate any color. For example, for Valentine's Day make red chocolate roses. And, the process is simple and easy. I've had many requests to show you how to color white-modeling chocolate and how to make white-modeling chocolate roses. So, here is a post as requested - white modeling chocolate roses and coloring. In addition, I thought I'd make a short video to show you how.
