I just got mine in the mail yesterday and am making a wedding cake this weekend- I'll post how they worked out!
I got the diamond cut, triple drop string , overlapping drop string and the double wedding ring. Can't wait to play with them!
AI got mine last week and LOVE them. Just follow the directions on the video and you will have no problem .i used the string drop ribbon one on my last cake ( it's the baseball wedding themed cake)and it was so simple. I don't do math and with these you don't have to! Wish I had stock in them! I will eventually get them all.

*squeals* Yippee!! I really want to try the moroccan lattice and the damask but didn't want to waste the $ if they didn't work!!
AI am on my iPad right now and can't get this site to import my pic. It is in my gallery and it is the baseball themed wedding cake. I used the mold on the top tier and it is the drop string mold.
Thank you shanter! I have the worst time with this site and the changes. I can't get anything to post and I can't comment on anyone's photos when I am on my Ipad. Finally home on my desktop now. Hope all of you that are thinking about purchasing these molds love them as much as I do!
Updating this post...I bought the damask and moroccan lattice onlays. They shipped me the wrong order, so I only have the damask right now. I'm having some problems getting all the little "extra" pieces out of the mold before applying it to the cake. Any tips??
AI use a weeding tool but a hat pin, Dresden tool or anything with a slight point works. Just be cautious to not puncture your mold.
In addition to what JanDunlevy said, try dampening your fondant a little more with whatever adhesive you're using. I may be one of the few people who aren't in love with the onlays. I don't hate them, just don't love them and had trouble with them. Unless I had a customer who wanted a very specific pattern, I wouldn't buy any just to have in my tool chest.
I think I may have added too much tylose to my fondant..and maybe had it a little too thick. After playing around with it last night, here's what I ended up with. :) I did the top layer last, it definitely looks better than the bottom!! Glad it's not for a client or the bottom would need to be re-done!

sixinarow: OMG that is as beautiful as the highly stenciled cakes. Had to look on the internet.
http://marvelousmolds.com/onlays/moroccan-lattice It is elegant, the red flowers POP, beautiful.
AThat is gorgeous! Love the contrast of the black, white and red and the way you used it. Great job with the molds.
What will they think of next? This mold for a gumpaste TIARA is amazing, just watched the tutorial video.
I've never used gumpaste. I can see that there's a whole world out there to explore.
I was wondering how many people who have the onlays have tried them on buttercream. I have a client who wants the chevron pattern, but not a fondant base. Thoughts? Maybe if it's real cold, it won't stick?
