Hello everyone: I have asked the instructions of the designs in gelatin. First, using a fine wire that comes in gold and / or silver, I do not know what is the name of the wire. You give the desired shape, (not to be very large because the design breaks the bubble that forms gelatin). Have a little patience because doing these designs often are broken and have to be done again.

Recipe:

5 tablespoons water
1 tablespoon illuminator (Super PEARL) white
paste coloring to desired shade
2 tablespoons gelatin powder (KNOX) colourless

You can use half the recipe if you do not have many designs to do.

Place the water, the iluminator (Super PEARL) and color in a glass container. Sprinkle gelatin until moistened. Important - do not stir with any utensil because bubbles are made and those emerging in the design. Bring the water-bath until it is dissolved. Place designs and gently remove. Turn around and let them dry (on a piece of "foam") at least one hour.

Thanks for the instructions! Your cake is beautiful!!

THNAK YOU! That is beautiful!

How awesome!! I cant wait to try this. One question what is illuminator (Super PEARL) white ?

Thanks Val

I think that by Illuminator she means luster dust and double boiler for water bath.

Thanks for again for sharing the recipe! No puedo esperar a tratarla.

It is the super pearl dust and you can do without it if you don't need the shine.

I thought I seen a how-to from ShirleyW on how to make gelatin wings which is the same technique but I cannot find it now. I just found this link:

This is a tutorial from another member:

ShirleyW adds this tip:

I have never seen this technique before -- I'm looking forward to trying it! Thanks for sharing!!

I'm glad this came up -- I'm taking a gelatin butterfly class in August with Michaelle Stidham -- she does this with a wireless technique. Either way I haven't done this before. I can't wait!!
