Once again trying to make fondant flowers. This is a totally different technique than I have used before and it came out...well, OK at best. I think the main problem was the consistency of the gumpaste/fondant mixture. I kept re-rolling and it dried out quicker than I expected despite my efforts of keeping everything under saran wrap. Due to the drying out the edges cracked some, and it was also my first time using the ball tool to frill the edges.Started out with a center this time, and wrapped up alternating petals. This is with one layer done
The finished product has 3 layers done and I added in some texture to the center - it doesn't looks too bad from this angle, even though the edges are tearing/cracking
I'm wondering if I should try going with tylose powder or pre-made gumpaste...~emy
