So I am making a football field cake next week for my son's birthday. I plan on making a scoreboard and stick it into the cake with thin wooden dowels.
I think I am going to use gumpaste for it, but my question is has anyone ever used an oven to dry gumpaste without cracking it?
I would like to get the scoreboard done and out of the way in a couple days and I didnt know if I could put my oven on a low setting and dry out the scoreboard that way.
If you have a couple of days to get it done, you should have time for it to air dry. I've never used the oven to dry gumpaste out, but have heard fo some people doing it and being successfull. Good luck. HTH

tried it and it didn't work for me I ended up wrapping my gum paste around Styrofoam and using editable image for the front with the wooden dowels the gum paste cracked and became to heavy I Personalized the scoreboard with Happy Birthday on the front with my nephews name on it, theirs a picture in my photos itâs not that great but it might give you and idea.

I have also used the oven to dry my fondant/gumpaste goodies that I have made, as it is cold and damp here at present. I leave the light on, but I do keep the door closed as well.
