I learned an easy lesson the hard way this morning. I made MMF/Gumpaste Turkeys and they weren't drying so last night when I was done baking and the oven had cooled I put them in there with the door cracked. The door shut sometime last night. I received one more order for a pumpkin roll this morning and not thinking turned the oven on to 375 and after a few minutes smelled something funny. Yep, I had roasted turkeys. They had melted into a pile of goo, UGH!
So I guess I have finally learned always check the oven before you turn it on.
Any clues on how to get the new ones I made to dry before tomorrow?
sorry, must have hit the underline button by accident. Just isn't my morning.
I dry my pieces in a 175 degree oven. Leave them in for only 1 hour. They should then be hard enough to retain their shape, and air dry the rest of the way.

Well i can tell you don't put MMF in a dehydrator, i did that to my eagle and it started to melt through the holes in the tray, luckily i was watching it and was able to salvage ~ and that was very low heat!
