I have an unopened jar of gum paste mix that I have had for years. We're not just talking 2 or 3 here, maybe more like 6. icon_redface.gif
Anyone have any experience using the gum paste mix after this length of time? I'm sure I could just try it and see how it works but I figured I'd ask first.
Thanks!
Hope

I would throw it out. I was told to keep the gumpaste in the fridge and it will last forever.

Yes, it is powder, not pre-made gumpaste. I guess maybe I'll just try it out before throwing it out.
