Amazing work; I learned so much watching your videos!! Love to watch a pro cake artisan at work :) I have a question about the dowel used to attach the wheels. When exactly did you place the dowels through the RKT? Was it fairly pliable still or was it "set?"

Hi... what an amazing, wonderful cake topper. I would love to try this for a friend crazy about vintage cars. Have looked for diagrams and specs to print but cant find. What make and model is the car? Many thanks.....

Very interesting , i have questions please . Where can i get the templates ? And the doors were added after you trimmed the part of the wheels ? Thanks

Hi...your work is amazing...my question is do you wet the RI before cover with fondant...is it is not, how it stick ??
thanks

[@smileyx0x0]

did you make this a day or days in advance? if so, specifically how many days? i've read somewhere RKT will go stale easily so it's best to make it one day ahead if you'll use it in making figures. Is this true?
By the way, did you wait for the RKT to cool while shaping it? or it's a bit warm when you were using it to shape the car?
your response is very much appreciated. Many thanks.

How heavy is it?? I'm needing to make a car to go on top of a cake and was thinking of doing it like this. But it's a 'monster truck' so there's gonna be 'sticks' between the wheels and the car - so it's lifted off the wheels - if that makes sense..... Can't be too heavy.

Can you make a scooter rice Krispy (Vespa or something) plzz my dad's birthday is soon

[@itisastormyweather]

Great video!! How long can you work with the rice krispy treats before you can't shape it anymore ??????

[@Artisancakecompany]

That really depends on your RKT and how hot they are and how cool they are when you start working on them. I would say maybe 5 minutes and then you have to let them set and then you can carve once fully set
