Gum paste brooch

by Louise 19 Comments

Gum paste brooch
Just a short post, to show you, the gum paste brooch that I made yesterday. The brooch is going to be used on a purse cake. I have never made a purse cake before, so this is going to be a lot of fun. Next step, is baking the cake and preparing the cakeboard….

Happy Caking!

Louise

    I used a small quick rose cutter from FMM and used a veining tool as well on the petals.

      It is mainly just strips that are ruffled. A quick rose cutter from FMM. Other details made with my tools.

    Hi Louise, 
     
    I have been a long time follower of your site and I admire your immense talent and artistic abilities and some day I too would like to start my own site . Since I check your site frequently I know each and every cookie , cake and fondant  piece you have ever made and imagine my suprise when i find one of your fondant butterfly cookies being used by an imposter to promote their own business. whoever this person is must not get away with using your work and passing it off as their own .
     
    I dont know what else I could do but to let you know and I am attaching the website for you to see as well https://www.etsy.com/listing/71839658/butterfly-sugar-cookies-made-with
     
    Good Luck
