Dip the toothpick in water. Shake off the excess, the should work.
why do you need to do this? might it be better to just roll a sausage of gumpaste and let it dry, will then be pretty solid.
you can make glue by disolving some fondant in hot water, maybe try that.

will the toothpick be visable then, or not? cause u could just stick the hearts to the stick using ri or chocolate. stick another on the back to hide the stick. or if you cut the hearts thick enoguh, jsut push the cocktail stick into the middle.

Or you could dip your toothpick almost completely in white chocolate and then stick the heart directly to it before it dries - then the toothpick will be mostly white and the heart can be attached at the same time. Then you might want to leave the tip of the toothpick uncovered so people will know it's a toothpick and not try to eat it![]()
other thoughts... could dip it in coloured white chocolate or ri to match/ compliment the hearts.
and maybe you mean skewer? we all know what your on about, lol ![]()

If you have an extruder, fill it with fondant. Stick the skewer/toothpick into the extruder and extrude away. It will cover it in fondant.
This is a great idea! It works with RI and BC in a pastry bag too!
I'm telling ya', I'm fondant snake impaired. Even with Playdough as a kid, I couldn't make it even for nothing. As an adult, same results. I thought having something solid inside would fix the problem, but nope! I got desperate one day and shoved a skewer into the extruder and I swear the heavens opened wide, the clouds parted, and the sun finally shined down uponeth my countertop. LOL ![]()

Hilarious!
Glad you found a way to make it work for you.
I can't roll fondant around anything... it gets too loose and using "glue" is too sloppy for me. I discovered this technique about 25 years ago while covering spaghetti kitten whiskers with icing. It works great for making cattails too!
