Fondant and Gum paste


I just finished my Fondant and Gum Paste course by Wilton.
I also bought many tools :), now I just need to practice more and more to discover new techniques to make the flowers and borders more beautiful.
By the way, I love flowers very much, I like to make them either with Fondant or Icing. In my opinion icing is more delicious than fondant, however fondant makes the cake smoother.
Now Im making some flowers for my Birthday cake and practicing at the same time. :))

TIP: Fondant and gum paste are the same with just one difference, the gum paste dries off faster than the fondant, so When you need to make flower or borders at the last time, is better to use gum paste, its going to dry super fast. : )
