black and white flower cupcakes :)

I love making flowers, and I especially liked these! I had been wanting to try making flowers out if black gum paste to see if the color would stay just as dark once it dried. I am really happy with how they turned out  :)
These were one of three different types of cupcakes I made for a house warming party. The others were chocolate cupcakes with chocolate/peanut butter swirls and the coconut caramel ones so they  weren't "decorated".
