Please Help, Looking For Ideas And Suggestions (Fondant)
Decorating By mesg Updated 22 Jan 2015 , 5:53pm by gscout73
AI'm fairly new to cake decorating and have been challenged to make a construction cake with a specific piece of equipment. I need suggestions on how to make this (the drill bit portion). I tried fondant last night and it kept sagging or cracking. Thanks in advance.[ATTACHMENT=2075]Screenshot_2015-01-21-08-48-53.png (529k. png file)[/ATTACHMENT]
Was it just plain fondant you used? Try using gumpaste instead, but make sure to support the shape until it dries - probably overnight.
AYou can use the fondant but add Tylose powder to the fondant. You will have less time to work with the fondant but It will dry firm. Hth
I would go with gumpaste and use those weird cucumber ribbon cutters from the early 90s as a mould...I knew they would come in useful for something!
