Okay, so I am going to attempt my first ribbon and bow for my niece's cake this Sunday. I spent about 5 hours yesterday on this site and watching you tube videos to prepare (and I DID have other work to do) and think I'm ready. But...I have been to grocery stores and to Michaels and couldn't find Tylose. I was going to make MMF like I have been for my accents, but a shopper at Michaels told me that she didn't think MMF would hold up for a big loopy ribbon and she advised me to just buy the Wilton and that if I did it tonight, my ribbons would be ready to assemble onto the cake Sunday morning without any Tylose. I'm already freaked about worried about the effort to get hot pink, I was going to add it to the MMF as it was still liquid, but now...I have no idea.
So, is tylose a must for this or will fondant work okay and do Ihave time to make MMF today (I was under the impression itneeded to sit overnight) or should I use the Wilton? Thanks for your help. Without you guys at this site, I would not be able to be playing with these cakes..well, without this site, I would never have STARTED making cakes, either!
