Can you use fondant in your clay gun? Do you put crisco inside the clay gun before putting the fondant inside? I tried doing it and the fondant won't come out of the clay gun icon_sad.gif.

Do you have any tips on how to use a clay gun?

Please share. Thank you icon_biggrin.gif.

Yep need crisco into the fondant until it is really soft and it will come out nice and easy

You can microwave your fondant a little before putting it in...this will make it very, very pliable.

By the way, what kind of extruder do you have, the push one or this style: http://www.makinsclay.com/US/eng/products/ultimate.htm
