I want to make a piece of chalk and an eraser for a cake I'm doing. Can I use gum paste to do it or do I have to use fondant? I've never used gum paste so I don't know what it's like. Thanks for your help, Kristen
You can also mix the two together. This will give you a product that dries faster than just fondant but not quite as fast as gumpaste which will give you a little more work time with it.
I would use gumpaste, gets really hard and can be made way ahead of time.
Yes it is edible, not great to the tastebuds, unless you use some flavouring, like peppermint.....but i have found most cake decorations are NOT eaten and are simply placed off to the side of the cake when cutting.
