They definitely do not "flick out" of the molds! What a nightmare!

I'm ready to go back to royal icing for all my little "molding" adornments I need.

Gumpaste was horrible...pastillage was EVEN WORSE!

I bought 3 of these mold sheets...what a waste of money!

(I have them soaking in the sink right now to remove all the excess gumpaste and pastillage that refused to come out. Later I'll try using shortening...did it do any good?)

I coat mine with shortening and it works great.

It also helps to lightly brush the gumpaste before you press it in the mold
