Hello everyone. It has been a while since my last post. I will not give you a recipe for this post, since it was a complimentary dish from a dearest person. All I can say is that it was delicious!
How to make Gumpaste Flowers
Today I bought a new set of flower cutters
, so as all kids do I wanted to use them immediately :-).
, so as all kids do I wanted to use them immediately :-). I made quite a few daisies and some flower leaves, which I think I will use in decorating a birthday cake.
It is easy to use gumpaste
as long as you work fast. You can make it using a traditional gumpaste recipe or by incorporating gum tragacanth 
into your fondant.

a quick and easy way to form gumpaste. Below you can read what I used to make my flowers.

Gumpaste Flowers
You will need:
200gr fondant
(different colors)1 teaspoon Tylo powder
Flower cutters
Wilton Rolling pin
1 toothpick
1 cotton bud
Wilton colors
- For every 200gr of fondant, you will need 1 teaspoon of Tylo powder.
- Tylo powder makes fondant become hard, so you have to work fast.
- Incorporate the Tylo Powder
and cover with clean film.
- Use the rolling pin and flower cutters to form the flowers.
- Remove the gumpaste from the cutters with the use of a cotton bud or a toothpick (cotton bud works better).
- You can use them immediately or after several days.
How cute!

They are so pretty. I know exactly what you mean, whenever I get the moment to play with gum paste, I just turn into a kid all over again - it really is so much fun.
ReplyDeleteThey are so pretty. Sad to say I haven't got the patience or the skills to do these things. I so admire your work.
