You can make the handle with gumpaste/fondant mix or just fondant - about 5 days before - lay it flat to dry so it will sit up right on the cake ![]()
You can also make some make up, etc for decorations around the purse out of fondant!
You can make rice krispie treats as well and mold them into handles -
Cover the handles in melted chocolate or icing - then cover in fondant

At the bakery I worked at, we always used the stems to silk flowers, which are flexible, and rolled fondant around it. I think solid fondant or gumpaste would be too heavy to stand alone.
You'll just have to stick candy sticks or dowels in the handles as they dry - then stick them in the cake - dowels and all for extra support ![]()
