  The marzipan daisies are made using the same white marzipan that has been used to cover the cake, this is to avoid any contrast between the color of the base and the color of the daisies. The marzipan daisies are made by rolling out the marzipan flat and taking out the flower shapes using a daisy shaped cutter.

    Marzipan daisies   Because the marzipan is too soft to hold the flower shape on its own, it should be left to rest for a few days after it has been rolled out, this is to let the marzipan dry out and harden in order to prevent it from sticking to the cutter and to enable the handling of the daisy shapes without causing the petals to fall off. The centre of the flower is added only after the daisy has been cut out.

  The secret to creating a good looking marzipan daisy wedding cake is to use as many daisies as possible in the attempt to cover the whole surface of the wedding cake.
