I have seen different kinds of gum paste recipes. Has anyone made a gum paste with egg whites? what is your opinion about it?

I have, and I love it!

I have. I used Nicholas Lodge's recipe and it's great. The gumpaste comes out bright white and it almost seems too stiff to work with but once you knead a bit of shortening in, it's really smooth and easy to use.

I use Kerry Vincent's recipe. Easy and fast to make, and I love the consistency.

I use Nicholas Lodge's recipe and love it too... I have also used the Wilton powdered gumpaste mix (Ran Out of Tylose and can't get it locally) and was surprisingly pleased with it.. I hate the premade wilton gumpaste but the powdered kind worked well.

My favorite is Nicholas Lodge's recipe though.

I will be making a batch soon!!! thank you guys!
