Red rose wedding cake

This cake was my first cake with fresh flowers on it.  I was a bit nervous about the flowers as I really dislike putting faith into other people for the quality of a cake I am putting my own stamp on (ie. the quality of the flowers) Also I was not quite sure how I was going to keep the flowers looking beautiful for a long period of time.  I decided on wrapping each rose in wet paper towels and foil and stuck them into the cake.  This hopefully would have worked but In the end I didn't need to worry because a close friend of mine was catering the wedding and was able to put the roses in the cake right before the wedding.  Given the fact that it was a hot day this was probably a good thing.
