Wilton Course 2 class 1

The first class was all about gum paste.  We made flowers by using a cutter for shape and pushing gum paste into a mold.  Gum paste dries fast so you have to keep it tightly covered when you are not working with it.   It was drying quickly even as we worked with it so it cracked in some places on the pansy.  The pansy was ruffled by pushing on the edges with a tool that had a ball on the end.  Gum paste gets very hard after it dries completely.  It was a fun new medium to work with.
