Consistancy Of Rice Cereal Treats For Decorating?
Decorating By cakecastle Updated 3 Oct 2008 , 1:23am by cakecastle
Do you just make the recipe according to the directions on the cereal box or is there another recipe that is "stiffer" to use for decorating. Thank you!
there are a number of threads on using RKT so if you do search you'll get some really good info. Honestly because I hate the cleanup, I used pre-made ones. they're a little stiffer than homemade and if you want to soften them up you can pop them in the microwave for a few seconds, but I just needed them a little as is and they worked great.
If you are looking to using them to sculpt or mold something don't use the butter/margarine it calls for in the recipe. It makes the RKT too soft to harden.
Hope it helps

Thank you!
Yes, I'm looking to mold a shape and then cover with MMF. So just leave out the butter and follow the rest of the recipe, correct?
I think you still need to use the butter, just not as much. I saw it on another thread. I'm using for the first time this weekend to make the pineapple house of sponge bob out of RKT. Wish me luck!
I have used RKT many times and I use the org. recipe after I make them I put them in a large baggy and if I want them stiffer I just reheat them in the plastic baggy and they get stiffer for molding I find them easy to work with after they are cooled when using the org. recipe
