Hi Louise,

I’m new at this fondant decoration and I found your page amazing source for me to learn and practice myself (I do believe in self-taught) I wasnt successful at making gum paste last time,it was a bit dried and I didn’t have enough tools to work on, so I just ordered a few but still a bit lost at first as I dont know what to do and have no idea what to make, and google brought you to me . Thank you for being such a wonderful inspiration for me and also thank you for the terrific job.

You can buy gum past ready made at most cake decorating stores. You can also buy a powder mixture or making it yourself. I like the gum paste recipe from Nicholas Lodge http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZAmDI3iQMbc

I got the cups from the UK but I must say that there are not good. I have used double cups :-/

I have not tried GumTex since I have always used CMC. But I will try it next time I go shopping for more supplies.

I love these cupcakes. They look so delicious. If you are looking for a good recipe for gumpaste try the Eggwhite gumpaste on www. facebook.com/IcingOnly The Gum Tex is a Wilton product you can buy at most cake decorating stores. It is similar to CMC but they can not be used interchangeably.
