Flying Flower Fairy

This little darling is 5 cm tall (2 inches).

She is one of 18 edible birthday cake decorations made from sugar paste (fondant), petal paste (gum paste) and mexican paste (a different mixture that is sort of like mixing the other two together to get a quick drying but flexible medium) for a party tomorrow.
I made each of these figurines from scratch: molded heads, painted features on heads, made 18 pairs of arms as well as legs, 18 body cones and 18 wings.
Made hats, secured to heads; added green flower stem to hat back.
Rolled, cut out and frilled flower for dress and sleeves.
Attached legs, dress, arms, sleeves; then head and lastly wings.
It's not difficult, just time consuming.
Each step must be done in the proper sequence.
