Spiderwebs Without Sugarveil? Thought There Was A Sub...?

Lambshack Posted 9 Oct 2011 , 2:39pm

I am positive that someone had a substitute 'formula' to get a similar effect as the Sugarveil product. I need to make some spiderwebs for a cake this week, and I can't find this info anywhere. My search only brings up the real Sugarveil info. Can anyone help me!?? And quick?!!

I just made a cake with spiderwebs, I used a gumpaste mix from bakers kitchen, it makes flexible royal icing. I just drew spiderwebs on parchment paper and piped the royal on the paper, let it dry overnight then peel it right off! I works like a charm! They have different colors.I used the chocolate then added black color. I first saw it on Amazing Wedding Cakes.

I did this as well, using Wilton gum paste mix (dry powder in the can). Worked perfectly. Used in on the Charlotte's Web/Farm Cake in my pics for a large web, also did it for small webs on cupcake (not in my photos).

Stupid question??? did you make a standard royal recipe and then add the gumpaste powder to it??? or did you have a recipe that used the gumpaste??? sorry I tried the original thread and it is corrupt so I could not get an exact recipe... Thanks Kat
