In this tutorial I will show you how to make a corn starch dusting bag.

This is what you need to create it:
1. A foam washcloth
2. A rubberband
3. Corn starch

1. Put a pile of corn starch on the washcloth.

2. Take the four corners and put them together. Then tighten them together with the rubberband.

3. Now you have a handy dusting bag which is useful when you roll out your sugar paste (fondant icing).

Happy Caking

    I have tried everything but find cornstarch works best when working with sugarpaste/fondant.

    Lindsay: Most use cornstarch but some do use icing sugar. I like cornstarch myself.
