I've never tried it, but I've read that you can put them in the oven with only the light on.

If you rolled them thinly then they will probably dry quickly. When I want to speed things up I insert them into a styrofoam board and turn on the ceiling fan. That seems to speed things up! thumbs_up.gif

I can't imagine you would have to speed dry, my experience with gumpaste is it dries very fast.
