Hi everyone! I just beginnig to plan my 11 year old's BD Party. She loves monkies, so I let her look through the gallery. BAD MOVE! Everything she picked out was something I have no idea how to do! icon_redface.gif Of course, I told her no problem, I'll ask hundreds of my friends how to do it. lol

Now how do I begin to make monkey figures out of mmf? I guess I should point out that I've never used fondant but have been meaning to try it. Is there some place to find EASY instructions? Any advice is needed!

Thank you, Sherri

Thanks for the link to wilton's version.

It seems like I remember somewhere on CC was step by step instructions on making them. But I can't find what I'm looking for. Does anybody have suggestions on the example of monkey in the link below? I wonder if it is fondant ot what? I hear alot about gumpaste, but know little about it. Which shoud I try? And how long does somthing like this need to be made ahead of time?
