For a bow I would use gum paiste, or at least 50/50 fondant gum paiste.... Gum paist keeps it shape better and gets harder faster...

I've also been told to use 50/50, it works better

50/50 Fondant/Gumpaste......you would be crushed if you used only fondant and your bow broke. I don't use straight gumpaste either.......something about the consistency that bugs me.........
