It sounds like when you are demolding the cast sugar you have a sharp "fin" or ridge. If you let the sugar cool down to the thickness of molasses before you pour it this won't happen. Dont' pour around the edges, try and only pour in the middle of the mold and let it ooze to the sides. You should get a nice bevelled edge that way. Other wise you need to heat a flat knife and polish it out.

Love your sugar bubbles - this has to go into my favorites!
yes you can decorate them with royal icing
Hello All! Well here goes,,,,,,my first post........
I have been reading up on candy and the art of blowing it into bubbles for decoration. Very impressive. I am looking for tips on candy flowers with stems and the like. I saw it on the Food Network. One of the chefs had a cake decorating contest with a pro wedding cake designer. Her cake was decorated with everything edible. The flowers were placed in sprigs coming off the cake and were made of candy,,,,,not chocolate. Any tips on this would be most helpful. Also ,,,,has anyone seen the show "Ace of Cakes" on the Food Network? I happened on it by chance one night just flicking the channells. This guy and his crew are totally amazing. Check out their website. I've been decorating cakes for 25 years and haven't seen anything like this. It's true art at its best!!! Thanks to all for their great posts as I learn something new each time I check in here.
Hi Handi--welcome aboard. There's a great group of people here, and yes we all love Duff. He's ADHD at its best!! As for the flowers, they were likely gumpaste--and you can learn a lot about that here--or possibly sugared edible flowers--easier, but not as intricate.
wow thats so cool, ill have to try that, thanks for sharing. 
Welcome aboard! Yes, Duff is a hero to many of us! I even had to create him out of gumpaste!! (check out in my photos). What I love about him and his crew is that their all down to earth and dont act like their the "only" people that do this. Love the man!
PS
Wearing gloves does two things
Heat is one of them and the other is that the moisture from your hands can cause to sugar to crystallize.
It also keeps your artwork from having fingerprints all over it. 
A teacher taught us to use cotton gloves with latex gloves over that when working w/ pulling or blowing sugar. It helped tremendously. Great tutorial! I'd love to start practicing again.
this looks like alot of fun CAnt wait to try this!!!!!!!!!!
I have never seen anything like this- absolutely amazing! I am just a baby baker right now, learning how to so much as bake a cake and apply the icing, but I am an artist for a living and it's these things that make me want to work on the edible side of art. Thanks for sharing it!
