How Do I Make A Teapot Cake?

Well I know how to make the cake but how do I attach the spout and handle? Won't it slide down or somehow try to fall? Any tips would be greatly appreciated. ![]()
What I've done that works well for me is to insert a skewer in the spout and about half a toothpick in the ends of the handle before they dry. I've used 100% gumpaste, 50/50 fondant & gumpaste and fondant with tylose added to make the spouts and handles and have used this method with all of them.
I then use a little tylose glue on the teapot base and stick the pieces in. Be sure to make extra handles - I've broken a few before!
HTH,
Karen
