Ok i am wanting to make a gumpaste tiara to set on top of a childs birthday cake but not really sure how to go about making it.

there is a tutorial here for how to make a tiara, but it's out of royal icing...so I don't know if that will help you. i would think you could use the same sort of template , if you had a clay extruder or some other type of thing for making the gumpaste into thin ropes, and just follow the template...but i don't know as i've never done it.

i have done a royal icing tiara and it broke on me so i made one out of melting chocolate at the last minute and it wasn't that nice.

So Sorry...I'm having computer issues at the moment.

Thanks that really helps me out.

Where can I find a good extruder? I have to do this in about a week.

Sorry, I had no idea you asked a question on this thread...I didn't receive any email notifications.

I got my extruder on-line, but I think they sell the very same one at Michael's craft stores or Hobby Lobby, in the clay section, not cake decorating section. This is what it looks like: http://www.theclaystore.com/pages-popup_image-pID-745/index.html

If you do have a Michaels nearby, here's a 50% off coupon, good until tomorrow: http://sdm3.rm04.net/servlet/MailView?ms=MjM5NjY1NQS2&r=MTU4NzA1MTI5OTIS1&j=Njc2MDQ4MjQS1&mt=1&rt=0

By the way...I posted the above on Sun. 2/15, as is this, even though it states Monday 2/16 at the top. I've noticed that discrepency before.
I wonder why that happens?

Thanks alot i was planning on going shopping for one tomorrow so now i can go to michaels and use the coupon on that. Thanks

You're welcome .
