can anyone give me any tips on letters? my lettering and writing is weak and would prefer to use fondant/gumpaste letters. anyone have a few tips that they are willing to share? what templates work for you? appreciate your help!
thanks

A lot of people use cutters for letters...they're a bit expensive but much easier than cutting then out one at a time with a paper template and an xacto knife.
thanks...i will look on line for some. my cake supply didn't have any. do you recommend gum paste letters or fondant...or chocolate?
FMM Tappits are awesome!
Global Sugar Art carries them

I TOTALLY agree! And yes, do watch edna's youtube video on them:
I also use Tappits. They can be a bit tricky also and I have found the small ones a little difficult to get on the side of the cake even if I wait for them to dry a bit. But they are much better than me trying to write with BC on the side of the cake. UGLY!!!!
You can also roll out snakes of fondant or extrude ropes of fondant and form letters.
Print out your message or name in any font you want to copy. Lay a piece of clear acetate over, wipe the acetate with a very light coat of Crisco and then lay the fondant snakes over the letters. Let it harden and lift off carefully and place on your cake.
I love my tappits! But I wish I was better in butter cream and RI- back to practicing.
