I didn't know better, and hadn't read that tip anywhere including here.



What do you mean, load it from the bottom? I don't get what you're saying.

When you twist the plunger all the way to the end (meaning you have extruded all of the fondant), don't you just unscrew and pull the plunger out, screw the green ring back down to the top of the plunger, re-load the barrel with fondant, and screw the plunger assembly back on?

Or is there some kind of shortcut I am totally missing?




Cakepro if I hadn't read this I would have done it the same way. I was looking up some info and found this link with some pics in case anyone else was wondering the same thing:

I used mine for the first time last nite making the strings for a lacrosse stick. I am so glad I got mine - it came in 2 days from clay alley.com. Definitely worth it. Here's my cake :http://www.cakecentral.com/modules.php?name=gallery&file=displayimage&pid=1337408

I bought mine from Hobby Lobby a few weeks ago. They also take Michaels coupons as long as they come out of the newspaper. I believe that Michael's has a 50% coupon this week.
