I'm sure that someone here will know of where to purchase alphabet molds for gumpaste/fondant, no the Wilton ones. I'm kind of looking for something different.

Thanks
Melissa

Dont know about any moulds, alphabet letters I know about come in the form of tappits and cutters.

I have the funky letter set from Tappits easy to use and look a little different.

The trick to using tappits it two-fold. First roll your fondant out THIN. Very thin. Pasta rollers are great for this. Then let it air dry for a couple of minutes, then flip it over and let the other side air dry. You want the fondant dry when you use them. Press the letter into the fondant and tap it on the edge of the counter (hence the name "tappits") and it will fall out. Be careful not to wack it too hard that you launch it across the room (don't ask me how I know that...) icon_rolleyes.gificon_biggrin.gif
