How does your fondant stay so nice? Mine will start cracking or not hold detail well. I can’t find that clay like consistency. I’ve tried with just a bit of tylose, no tylose and made gum paste. It just doesn’t hold up while I work with it
@@shereenscakesandbakes3258 thank you! I’m gonna see if I can find it. I love making 3d fondant characters for my cakes, but it’s so frustrating when it begins to crack.
@@bish_puddin I use renshaw flower and modelling paste for my roses. If you can’t find Saracino modelling paste, you can try making your own, I made my own for about 10 years before finding Saracino. You mix 250g sugarpaste with 1 teaspoon of either CMC powder, tylose powder or gum tragacanth (I preferred gum trag but it is the more expensive option)
@@shereenscakesandbakes3258 you are incredible! I was able to find the Saracino here in Florida at a local cake shop😁 I just did a nurse graduation cake with a bunch of 3d decorations and let me say… Thank you thank you thank you!! This stuff is awesome. It was a night and day difference and now I’m looking forward to more 3d decorations which is what it will be reserved for.
Hi, so sorry only seeing comments now 🤦🏻♀️ I don’t have a link, I got it off Google ages ago and just saved it on my computer but if you email me on cakes_and_bakes@hotmail.co.uk I can send you a copy x
I use sugar glue to attach and I usually add it straight after making it so it’s still a bit flexible and easy to attach and ‘bend’ a little on the curve of the cake

Hi. I only use Saracino modelling paste as that’s the best for holding shape, no cracking and staying in shape x
