Wow! Rylan you are a saint! Can this one be made into a sticky too?

This is awesome!!!!

Hi everyone....

I am on the FRUSTRATED train today....
everytime I make a monkey...... it always always looks like a bear when I am done...

GGRRRRR I don't know why?!?!?!?
I just had to re start another monkey/bear because DH and my son say it looks like a bear... I need help!
I don't understand it.... well... just needed to vent...

thanks!

Thankyou!! How do I add this post as a favorite?

Rylan, You are such a dear for doing these lists.....flowers, figures, etc.....Thank you for assembling them in one location for each subject. It must have taken you a lot of time to do it and it is very much appreciated!!

OK. I just got a sheet cake order, including music notes, red roses, and her pet chinchilla!!! I've looked up pictures of them on google, but there are several varieties. Any idea how to model a generic one out of 50/50 paste? To me, it looks half squirrel and half rabbit! TIA

Thank you Rylan. What would we do without your dedication to making us all better cake artists.

This is great! Thanks

Hi Ladies,

Thank you so much for this info on how to make the figures! I was hoping though that someone could help me with making a sitting bride and groom for a wedding cake I'm doing in May. I'm not 100% sure where to start. Do I make the bodies and then "clothe" them or do I make the clothes to look like bodies... any help will be soooooo appreciated!
TIA!

Wow, this is exactly what I needed. Thank you for posting!

This is great information. I was wondering how you can get this post to be a sticky at the top of the page like the other resource posts?

You are excellent...does anyone have advice on when to use fondant vs. gumpaste vs. modeling chocolate? Obviously different consistancy..but any other considerations?

THANKS!!!!!!

thanks Rylan!

Wow! I lost track of this thread -- but I found it again!!

i too forgot about this posting!! thanks again for all your hard work and research! and most of all sharing with us.

wow thanks!!!

BakingHabits,
for a more realistic and more 'cloth-like' topper I would clothe the bodies.
However the bodies looking like clothing are a less delicate look. Adorable both ways, though.
(I don't know if that helped much, sorry.)

Got bad news for everyone. All of the tutorials from www.theclaystore.com are gone. Their website is shut down.
