I have two questions:
1. How do you make gumpaste? I have seen the tutorials on here for making gumpaste items and I need to learn how to do it. I have a wedding cake for the first weekend of August and she wants Cala Lillies on the cake. The design is very simple but I have never made gumpast or Cala Lillies.
2. If I make the cakes and have them decorated by Wednesday do you think they will still be okay for a Sunday wedding? What are your suggestions for assuring they will be okay? The problem is I am going out of town Thursday Morning for my daughters wedding the same weekend so I need to try to get this figured out.
Thanks so much,
Bradymom

I make my own gumpaste. If you want the recipe, P.M. me.
Decorations made with gumpaste must be made in advance so that they dry properly. Place decorations on cakes the day before or the day that you need them.
