Ok, so can someone tell me if that’s fondant she added the boiled water to or if it’s a separate product because when I look up fondant glue It doesn’t show me anything that looks like that only the liquid stuff

Your amazing how many years have you been doing this please
Aww thank you lovely! id like to say 10 but I fear its edging on to 13 haha! I feel like Im getting old! Although my skills dramatically improved when I created my masterclass and proportion templates. Before then my my figures where like night and day. How long have you been creating for Sonia?
@@tastefulcakes I have owned cafes and restaurants since I was 17 I am now 60 and enjoying taking the time to learn new things and I love doing this but just a beginner a fascinated one thanks
Could you please make a tutorial on basic fondant human figures ? Male and female ?
Hello, thanks for putting in a request! love hearing what people are looking for. I am super detailed when teaching faces as they can be tricky, not sure I would get it into a youtube tutorial. If you are super serious about creating figures check this page out tastefulcakes.co.uk/online-cake-decorating-courses/ shout me if you have any questions happy to help :)

Hi Christina 😊 I Absolutely love your Fondant Candle idea . It’s Great . Not only can you Use Numbers but I Think Small Model Candles Are a Good Idea Too . Xx
Aww thank you so pleased they are helping! x
Can’t wait to try this
Whoop whoop its my life saver x
The tip about better fondant is really important. I've learned from my own experience that it's better to invest a little more money in good fondant. It saves time and nerves. But it takes a while until you find the best fondant for you. 🙂
Thats so true! The other day I had to use cheaper fondant to cover a cake ans was suprised it was a little easier because all these years I practised with the more expensive brands. Couture in the uk is my favourite, somewhere in Europe? what is good to use in your country?
I‘m actually using all pastes from Saracino (fondant to cover, modelling paste and flower paste). Before I used a fondant from a German company for years, but I had a lot of troubles with the fondant when the weather becomes hot and humid. The paste was sweating very quickly. And Massa Ticino is to soft for me. I know in Germany a lot of people swear on this brand, but it doesn’t work for me.
Thank you for your videos very helpful
You are welcome! x
Aww you’re lovely! X😊
You are truly a genius!
