   ["Peel the carrots, then place on a cutting board; with a vegetable peeler pressed firmly against the root end, drag the blade down its length.

Drop carrot ribbons into the bubbling syrup, simmer 30 seconds, then shut off the heat. When cool enough to handle, fish out a ribbon and let the excess syrup drip off.", "Holding the skinny end with your dominant hand, twist and wrap a carrot ribbon around itself to form a ""bud.""

Place on a fully frosted", ", repeating with additional carrot roses to create a lush bouquet."]
