I'm wondering if there's an easy way to make gumpaste letters. None of the cookie cutters I've seen are pretty, I'm looking for something script, and very flowey. There has to be a way to do it...if I print a pretty font...then what? Put over gumpaste and outline with a pin then cut with an exacto blade by hand? I have a feeling I would have a hard time making a clean edge, and it wouldn't be neat enough. HELP! Any suggestions???

Thanks in advance for you help

Depending on the size you want, use Tappits.

i agree, go with tappits, they wont drive you quite as crazy as tring to go the hand cut route.

Double ditto on tappits - the easiest way to go!

I would love to get the tappits too!! But in the meantime the easiest way I've found is by rolling a snake out of the gumpaste and then rolling the ends to a slight point and just forming it into the letter......like the number on this cake

You can also buy big cookie cutters in shapes of letters and numbers.

the tappits sound great, but when i researched them i couldn't find any that were as scripty and flowy as i wanted. KHalstead - i love your idea with the snake method, looks great on that cake!! thanks all
