I want to make a rolled diploma for a graduation cake. Should I use Fondant, gumpaste or a mix of both.

TIA

I use gumpaste, but you can add tylose to fondant and make it. I just wrap it around a big plastic dowel and let dry for several days if possible.

I also just use gumpaste that has been rolled very thin. After rolling I just slightly curl the exposed ends.

I made one by coating 3 long pretzel rods in white chocolate and rolled them in white modeling chocolate tied with a fondant ribbon.

The grad ate it and said it was delicious.

If you have rice paper, it's works as well, looks a little more like parchment paper and you can paint/write on it.

Hi,

I don't think I'd use gumpaste, it will be brittle. I think wraping it in the dowels as previsouly mentioned would work well. Use fondant w/ some tylose sprinkled in.

Good luck,
Lori
