I like to use a mix of half gum paste and half fondant.

Actually, all of my fondant creations do. Do you know what I might be doing wrong?

Thank u in advance !

Your pictures are gorgeous. Even if I didn’t want to learn how to make a bow, it would have been a pleasure looking at these beautiful pictures. I am glad you mentioned doing half fondant and half gum paste, that makes such sense. Thanks, I know how time consuming tutorials can be!

I forgot to stand the first one up while it was drying, so I had a laying down bow, but the second one stood up great. This was surprisingly easy – thanks for being so clear!

Is your paste to dry maybe? Try and make it with only fondant/sugar paste icing and see if that makes a different. Please write back how that goes. Thx.
