Can anyone tell me why you can't put the gelatin bows, flowers, butterflies in the refrigerator? I read in the book not to refrigerator or freeze them. Do they melt or do the colors run? TIA.

I think it's because when they are out of the fridge and coming to room temp, the condensation would cause the gelatin to melt.

Ummm.. soup?

woo hoo! yay for me!

LOL!

Thanks. I kind of thought that but wanted to be sure. They say you shouldn't refrigerate fondant either, but I do it all the time with no problems. I was hoping maybe the gelatin was the same type of thing.
