Saracino - This is for the hair and faces. You can use fondant for the hair but it doesn't hold in the same way.
You can purchase Saracino at Cake Stuff & Vanilla Valley
Tutor Notes:
If you just want to practice the hair, why not create face shapes out of a skin tone paste colour and leave it to dry overnight. This will ensure the paste is firm. This makes it far easier to practice, especially in the early stages of sugar modelling. Beginners tend to apply a lot more pressure than needed! Please dont worry, over time it will become easier. Creating these shaped faces also means you can practice creating an easy fondant hairstyle without creating the whole face.
