I purchased both premade gumpaste and gumpaste mix (both Wilton brand) as well as ball and veining tools and a foam flower pad (a Wilton set as well) but I can't get the edges thin enough! They don't ruffle at ALL! I tried working the gumpaste a litle more so it would roll thinner but nothing seemed to work. So frustrating. With enough thin petals, it looked okay, but not very ruffle-y.
Any tips on making the perfect gumpaste flowers?
I did make some figurines as well and the gumpaste dried very dry and cracked. I worked as fast as I could so it would dry while I was working with it..But the end it was still cracked. Any ideas or suggestions?
I also add some fondant to the gp to make it workable for longer.
